Abstract
A system may include a memory file, which includes an entry configured to store a first addressing pattern and a first tag, and an execution core coupled to the memory file. The memory file may be configured to compare the first addressing pattern included in the entry to a second addressing pattern of a load operation. If the second addressing pattern matches the first addressing pattern stored in the entry, the memory file is configured to link a data value identified by the first tag to a speculative result of the load operation. The execution core is configured to access the speculative result when executing a second operation that is dependent on the load operation.
