BRANCH STREAM COPROCESSOR ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A novel approach to reducing delays resulting from resolution of conditional branch instructions, in which such instructions are pre-executed in a coprocessor which precedes a pipeline processor and prepares an instruction stream for input to the pipeline processor. Because of this pre-execution, the input instruction stream has fewer conditional branches for the pipeline processor to resolve. Also, the coprocessor may handle address generation interlock situations which also cause execution delays in the pipeline processor.
