ABSTRACT:
A instruction fetch look-aside buffer with a loop mode control provides for reduced storage contention by storing a program loop in a look-aside buffer during normal mode operations. When the loop is to be executed again loop mode is entered and the instructions are taken directly out of the look-aside buffer without any access of storage required. If the instructions in the look-aside buffer are invalidated during loop mode or if the program loop is exited normal mode operations are resumed.
