Answer Posted / Lucky
The 8086 microprocessor uses an Instruction Stream Queue (ISQ) mechanism to improve its performance. The ISQ is a buffer that temporarily holds instructions fetched from memory during program execution. This allows the CPU to fetch and decode multiple instructions ahead of time, reducing the need for frequent memory accesses and improving overall performance.
