Today’s superscalar processors use branch prediction to reduce the influence of control hazards. Conventional two-level branch predictors make predictions based on either intra-branch correlation or inter-branch correlation. In the paper, the authors proposed two new branch predictors, called PGXg and PGAg, which make predictions by employing both intra-branch correlation and inter-branch corre...

regarding the importance of sciatic nerve distribution in replacement of anal sphincter and sciatic nerve block we decided to study this matter for the first time in iran. in this way 100 cadavers (88% male and 12% female) were dissected and studied by loop microscope. the results shows that primarily, according to the first branch derived from sciatic; there would be 4 main groups. if this sam...

the current article was an attempt to investigate the effect of semantic mapping strategy instruction on reading comprehension performance of efl learners. to this end, thirty homogeneous iranian intermediate efl learners attending a language school in bonab, iran, were randomly assigned to two groups, one as the experimental and the other as the control. the experimental group received instruc...

The performance and hardware complexity of superscalar architectures is hindered by conditional branch instructions. When conditional branches are encountered in a program, the instruction fetch unit must rapidly predict the branch predicate and begin speculatively fetching instructions with no loss of instruction throughput. Speculative execution increases hardware cost, since speculative inst...

One of the main principles in hand surgery is the restitution of sensation in fingers which seems hard or impossible in extensive hand traumas especially in war injuries. In this article transfer of sensory branch of radial nerve to sensory branch of median (in 25 cases) and to sensory branch of ulnar nerve (for the first time in literature and in 12 cases) is reported. Operative technics and r...

proliferation trend and polymorphism in 8 microsatellite dinucleotidalloci, a characteristic of japanese quail, were described in the present study. the primers concerned were tested in 200 birds from bonab research station. samples were taken from four strains of pharach, golden, tuxedo, and panda. in total, all loci were polymorphic, except for guj0001 and guj0041 in respective strains of pan...
