Abstract

A method is provided. The method is executable by a processor. The method includes receiving, by an instruction issue unit of the processor as an input, a preferred instruction variant from an instruction variant selection logic. The method includes executing, by an execution unit of the processor, the preferred instruction variant. The method includes providing, by the execution unit of the processor, quality feedback to the instruction variant selection logic and evaluating, by the instruction variant selection logic of the processor, the preferred instruction variant based on the quality feedback.
