If not handled effectively‚ execution rate of more than one instruction per cycle is difficult to achieve. This case study uses multi bit scoreboard architecture to handle data conflicts for out of order execution and completion of instructions. The paper analyses the performance of the superscalar microprocessor by using two stimulation models which uses benchmark programs and one calculation model which
