Question 5
1) Consider three branch prediction schemes: predict not taken,predict taken, and dynamic prediction.
● Assume that they all have zero penalty when they predictcorrectly and two cycles when they are wrong.
● Assume that the average predict accuracy of the dynamicpredictor is 90%. Which predictor is the best choice for thefollowing branches?
1. A branch that is taken with 5% frequency
2. A branch that is taken with 95% frequency
3. A branch that is taken with 70% frequency
