Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ability to execute instructions independently and concurrently in different pipelines is a characteristic of superscalar architecture. Scalar architecture (A) uses a single pipeline for instruction execution. Branch (B) refers to a type of instruction that changes the flow of program execution. Flow dependency (D) refers to a type of hazard that arises when an instruction depends on the result of an instruction in a previous stage of the pipeline.
