METHOD FOR ARRANGING BRANCH PREDICTORS OF 3-DIMENSIONAL MULTI-CORE PROCESSORS, AND THE 3-DIMENSIONAL MULTI-CORE PROCESSORS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for arranging branch predictors of 3-dimensional multi-core processors, and to the 3-dimensional multi-core processors, and in particular, to a method for arranging branch predictors of 3-dimensional multi-core processors, and to the 3-dimensional multi-core processors, in which accuracy degradation in the branch predictors is minimized and the branch predictors may operate at low temperatures since the branch predictors are classified by complexity, such that branch predictors having low complexity are arranged at processor cores having high operating temperatures and branch predictors having high complexity are arranged at processor cores having low operating temperatures.
