Combining Branch Predictors
, 1993
"... One of the key factors determining computer performance is the degree to which the implementation can take advantage of instruction-level paral-lelism. Perhaps the most critical limit to this parallelism is the presence of conditional branches that determine which instructions need to be executed ne ..."

method of combining the advantages of these different types of predictors. The new method uses a history mechanism to keep track of which predictor is most accurate for each branch so that the most accurate predictor can be used. In addition, this paper describes a method of increasing the usefulness
How People revisit Web Pages: empirical findings and implications for the design of history systems
- International Journal of Human Computer Studies
, 1997
"... We report on users ’ revisitation patterns to World Wide Web (web) pages, and use the results to lay an empirical foundation for the design of history mechanisms in web browsers. Through history, a user can return quickly to a previously visited page, possibly reducing the cognitive and physical ove ..."

Reflective and impulsive determinants of social behavior
- Personality and Social Psychology Review
, 2004
"... This article describes a 2-systems model that explains social behavior as a joint function of reflective and impulsive processes. In particular, it is assumed that social behavior is controlled by 2 interacting systems that follow different operating principles. The reflective system generates behav ..."

In the history of attempts to discover the causes of human behavior, the most widespread explanations are based on the assumption that human beings do
Design Guidelines for Effective WWW History Mechanisms

Evolutionary computation: Comments on the history and current state
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATION
, 1997
"... Evolutionary computation has started to receive significant attention during the last decade, although the origins can be traced back to the late 1950’s. This article surveys the history as well as the current state of this rapidly growing field. We describe the purpose, the general structure, and ..."

The Design of History Mechanisms and their Use in Collaborative Educational Simulations
- Proceedings of the Computer Support for Collaborative Learning, CSCL’99
, 1999
"... Reviewing past events has been useful in many domains. Videotapes and flight data recorders provide invaluable technological help to sports coaches or aviation engineers. Similarly, providing learners with a readable recording of their actions may help them monitor their behavior, reflect on their p ..."

Learning histories can help students and professionals make more effective use of digital library searching, word processing tasks, computer-assisted design tools
Alternative implementations of two-level adaptive branch prediction
- In Proceedings of the 19th International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA-19
, 1992
"... As the issue rate and depth of pipelining of high performance Superscalar processors increase, the importance of an excellent branch predictor becomes more vital to delivering the potential performance of a wide-issue, deep pipelined microarchitecture. We propose a new dynamic branch predictor (Two- ..."

The mechanism uses two levels of branch history information to make predictions, the history of the last L branches encountered, and the branch behavior for the last s occurrences
A Comparison of Dynamic Branch Predictors that use Two Levels of Branch History
- in Proceedings of the 20th Annual International Symposium on Computer Architecture
, 1993
"... Recent attention to speculative execution as a mechanism for increasing performance of single instruction streams has demanded substantially better branch prediction than what has been previously available. We [1, 2] and Pan, So, and Rahmeh [4] have both proposed variations of the same aggressive dy ..."

They have not, in general, been very fruitful and there has been some hesitation in applying the technique to the study of cancer. Recently, however, two hypotheses about the mechanism of carcinogenesis ..."
