ABSTRACT:
An instruction control method carries out an instruction in a processor to process instructions by out-of-order processing, using delay instructions for branching. The processor includes a storage unit, a branch predictor making branch predictions and a control unit which successively stores a plurality of delay instructions in the storage unit together with information indicating whether or not branch instructions corresponding to the delay instructions are predicted to branch by the branch predictor.
