Abstract
The disclosure provides a method for scheduling an out-of-order queue The method includes: adding a highest bit before each address in a reorder buffer (ROB) or in a branch reorder buffer (B-ROB), in which the addresses are entered by instructions in the out-of-order queue; adding a highest bit for a read pointer (roqhead) of the ROB or B-ROB; performing an exclusive-OR (XOR) operation on the highest bit for the roqhead and the highest bit for each of the addresses entered by two instructions to be compared, and determining addresses after the XOR operation as age information of the two instructions; and comparing the age information to determine the oldest instruction in the queue for execution in response to scheduling the out-of-order queue.
