P6 micro-architecture
1. Internal chip architecture of the PentiumŽ III processors and CeleronŽ processors. It\'s features include: multiple branch prediction, which predicts program execution through multiple branches and accelerates the flow of work to the processor; dataflow analysis, which creates an optimized, reordered schedule of instructions by analyzing data dependencies between instructions; and speculative execution, which carries out instruction execution speculatively and based upon this optimized schedule, ensures that the processor\'s superscalar execution units remain busy, boosting overall performance.
