predication

But, I seem to recall the line "predication, not prediction" as one of the features, if you want to call it that.

I guess the pundits had sensed their careers of predication were numbered and fought back hard, but Nate was proved right again.

I wrote an iOS speed-dial app that does the same sort of predication for contacts that this does for applications.

A fascinating read and good outline for what space battles require, but not a predication of what future space combat will look like.

He points out that the extensive predication in IA-64 makes an out of order implementation much more complicated.

I was having the same thought, at what point/how do you factor in the, "if I make this predication, which is contrary to my boss's expectations, will I still have a job".

[1] x86 has the advantage of having combined load/store and operate instructions, but ARM has 3-operand instructions, twice the registers instruction predication, and a free barrel roll when using it's ALU. Changes to the x86 instruction set since the Pentium 2 make things more fair.

There is only 1 instruction decoder per compute unit, so a stream processor cannot completely branch off independently, but it can still follow a unique code path via branch predication.

Clay allows ad-hoc overloading with predication based on arbitrary compile-time computation, whereas Rust's polymorphism support is more strictly based on Hindley-Milner parametric polymorphism and type classes.
