Abstract
The present invention is related to branch instructions in a pipeline process of a microprocessor system. The microprocessor system executes branch prediction if a conditional branch instruction code calls for branch prediction, and on the other hand, suspends successive instruction execution until a branch evaluation of the conditional branch instruction settles if the conditional branch instruction code does not call for branch prediction.
