In the context of the IA64 what is the difference between instruction and data speculation?

What will be an ideal response?


In instruction speculation, the goal is to move instructions above conditional branches to increase ILP and allow
more time for dependent operations to complete. In data speculation, the goal is to move loads above possibly
dependent stores to increase the gap between loads and operations which depend on them.
