hi there, i am major in communication,
however i still need to handle a short course on computer architecture..
i was recently given a project, to compare the normal and delayed branch.
i just want to know is there another name for normal branch or delayed branch?
i figured out they are different in terms of instruction cycles and i need to analyze it using simulation method.
If got any articles or journals regards the two will be appreciated. thanks for favor.
