Definition of "delay slot" |
in a pipelined processor, a time slot following a branch instruction. An instruction issued within this slot is executed regardless of whether the branch condition is met, so it may appear that the program is executing instructions out of order. Delay slots can be filled (by compilers) by rearranging the program steps, but when this is not possible, they are filled with “no-operation” instructions. |
