摘要:
A method of prefetching addresses includes the step of accessing a stored instruction using a current address. During the access using the current address, a target address is accessed in a branch target address cache. A stored instruction associated with the target address accessed from the branch target address cache is prefetched and the branch target address is indexed with selected bits from the address accessed from the branch target address cache.
