Chapter 6 introduced the integer computation instructions of the Itanium processor s instruction set. In this chapter, we continue our study of the ISA with the compare and branch instruction groups.
Security researchers at several American universities have collectively discovered another attack that can expose sensitive system data by exploiting modern CPUs. The attack, known as BranchScope, ...
Researchers from the College of William and Mary, Carnegie Mellon, the University of California Riverside, and Binghamton University have described a security attack that uses the speculative ...
