Abstract
The information processing device of the present invention stores the branch history information of a fetched instruction. When branch prediction fails, BHR information used for the branch prediction is restored using this stored branch history information. Thus, even when branch prediction fails, BHR information can be accurately restored. Accordingly, prediction accuracy can be improved.
