Abstract
A data processing system includes a data store having storage locations storing entries which can be used for a variety of purposes, such as operand value prediction, branch prediction, etc. An entry profile store stores profile data for more candidate entries than there are storage locations within the data store. The profile data is used to determine replacement policy for entries within the data store. The profile data can include hash values used to determine whether predictions associated with candidate entries were correct without having to store the full predictions within the profile data.
