Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Execution path ratio is mostly dominated by up to two execution paths in program loops. We consider the Two-Path Limited Speculation Method, that achieves speed-up in programs using optimazation of the most frequent two paths and speculative multi-thread execution of them. The path predictor predicts the next execution path in Two-Path Limited Speculation Method, and plays an important role in performance. In this paper, we apply some famous branch prediction methods to path prediction, and evaluate the validity. We discuss the validity in terms of miss prediction rate. At the result of the evaluation, Gshare path prediction method performs best in eight path prediction methods.
