PROCESSORS, METHODS, SYSTEMS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR TRANSCODING POINTS OF UNICODE VARIABLE LENGTH CODE

摘要

FIELD: information technology.;SUBSTANCE: device contains many registers of packed data; and a decoding module for decoding an instruction to determine the length of the packed point code of the variable length which is used for specifying packed first source data having a plurality of packed-length code points of variable length, each of which represents a sign and indicate a location in the accumulator; and an executive module connected to the decoding module and the packed data registers configured to store in response to the instruction of determining the length of the packed code point of variable length, the resulting packed data at a specified location in the storage device, the resulting packed data have a length for each of the plurality of packed code points of variable length. The executive module is configured to store in response to the instruction, each length value in the byte located in the same relative bit position at the accumulator destination, as well as the least significant byte of the corresponding variable length code point in the packed data of the first source.;EFFECT: ensuring the handling of instructions.;23 cl, 26 dwg
