Patent
·
OSTI ID:6893977
This patent describes a vector processor. It comprises: a plurality of vector registers, wherein each vector register is subdivided into a plurality of smaller registers, each of the smaller registers having a separate output, and each vector register stores a vector, each of the smaller registers storing a plurality of elements of the vector, each vector including a plurality of groups of the elements, each group including a plurality of elements corresponding in number to the plurality of smaller registers. The plurality of elements of each group of a vector stored in a vector register being stored, respectively, in the plurality of smaller registers of the vector register; a plurality of element processor means; and controlling means for selecting which groups of elements in the associated vector registers to process.
