Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Modern processors are acquiring deeper pipelines as their clock frequencies grow higher,leading to large misprediction penalties. Not all instructions flushed on misprediction, however, are wrongly executed; there are instructions independent of control flow. Not flushing such instructions and leaving them for continued execution will reduce misprediction penalty. This paper proposes a speculation scheme which continues execution of instructions on misprediction instead of flushing them. The results of instructions independent of control flow may be used for branch prediction and value prediction, and help execution of correct path. The evaluation showed that with an addition of small amount of Hardware, the proposed scheme will increase IPCs by average of 3.8\%(12%max.), 4.3\%(18%max.) and 3.8\%(36%max.), respectively for SPECint2000, SPECint2006 and MediaBench.
