  2. Branch target predictor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_target_predictor

    Fetch the prediction for the addresses of the targets of branches in that run of instructions; Select the address corresponding to the branch predicted taken; As the predictor RAM can be 5–10% of the size of the instruction cache, the fetch happens much faster than the instruction cache fetch, and so this recurrence is much faster.

  3. Branching (version control) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_(version_control)

    The users of the version control system can branch any branch. Branches are also known as trees, streams or codelines. The originating branch is sometimes called the parent branch, the upstream branch (or simply upstream, especially if the branches are maintained by different organizations or individuals), or the backing stream.

  4. Branch predictor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_predictor

    A pattern history table contains four entries per branch, one for each of the 2 2 = 4 possible branch histories, and each entry in the table contains a two-bit saturating counter of the same type as in figure 2 for each branch. The branch history register is used for choosing which of the four saturating counters to use.

  5. Routing (electronic design automation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_(electronic_design...

    In electronic design, wire routing, commonly called simply routing, is a step in the design of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and integrated circuits (ICs). It builds on a preceding step, called placement , which determines the location of each active element of an IC or component on a PCB.

  6. Git - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git

    The command to create a local repo, git init, creates a branch named master. [61] [111] Often it is used as the integration branch for merging changes into. [112] Since the default upstream remote is named origin, [113] the default remote branch is origin/master. Some tools such as GitHub and GitLab create a default branch named main instead.

  7. Bootleg ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootleg_ground

    A receptacle with a bootleg ground. In building wiring installed with separate neutral and protective ground bonding conductors (a TN-S network), a bootleg ground (or a false ground) is a connection between the neutral side of a receptacle or light fixture and the ground lug or enclosure of the wiring device.

  8. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    If the four light bulbs are connected in series, the same current flows through all of them and the voltage drop is 3 volts across each bulb, which may not be sufficient to make them glow. If the light bulbs are connected in parallel, the currents through the light bulbs combine to form the current in the battery, while the voltage drop is 12 ...

  9. Instruction pipelining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_pipelining

    Instruction 2 would be fetched at t 2 and would be complete at t 6. The first instruction might deposit the incremented number into R5 as its fifth step (register write back) at t 5. But the second instruction might get the number from R5 (to copy to R6) in its second step (instruction decode and register fetch) at time t 3. It seems that the ...
