Is there any public documentation on modern branch prediction algorithms? I know branch prediction is very important to modern CPU so SOTA techniques are probably not public... But it's really amazing what it can do especially considering the "limited" cache sizes that branch predictors have .
I guess it depends on how deep you want to go, I think the real predictors are based on publicly known algorithms such as TAGE. This seems to be nice overview: https://comparch.net/2013/06/30/why-tage-is-the-best/ (it's 2013, so definitely not SOTA, but advanced enough for my taste :) )
