During February 2025, Patrick Johnson enhanced the Purdue-SoCET/tensor-core repository by developing features that improved branch prediction and misprediction handling in CPU architecture. He implemented precise program counter signaling in the fetch path to address mispredictions, integrating this logic with updated SystemVerilog testbenches for thorough verification. Patrick also introduced a branch predictor into the fetch and branch pipelines, refining interface connections and expanding test coverage to ensure robust operation under various branching scenarios. His work involved refactoring the ihit signal across pipeline interfaces, utilizing Verilog and SystemVerilog to streamline hardware design and verification processes within the digital logic domain.
