ABSTRACT:
A pipeline circuit adopted for a CPU or a microprocessor in a computer system, computes the effective branch destination address of a conditional branch instruction before or in parallel with the execution of the conditional branch instruction, judges according to a result of the execution of an instruction just before the conditional branch instruction whether or not a branch condition of the conditional branch instruction is met, and, if the branch condition is met, executes the conditional branch instruction while prefetching and decoding an instruction located at the branch destination address.
