Abstract
Speculation and parallel processing can provide performance gains in many diverse applications. Compilers, grid computing, DSP, and bio-informatics are a representation of such areas where these concepts are utilized. In the field of network routers, packet processing can also use such speedups. As the line rate of packets increases with every new standard (Infiniband, 10-gigabit Ethernet), these speedups will become paramount for routers asked to do complicated tasks while still maintaining line speeds.
