SIMD (SINGLE INSTRUCTION-STREAM MULTIPLE DATA-STREAM) TYPE MICROPROCESSOR HAVING SORTING FUNCTION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform data sorting processing at high speed in each processor element of an SMID type microprocessor.;SOLUTION: In the SIMD type microprocessor having a plurality of processor elements, values stored in a specific register provided at each processor element, and values stored in an operand-specified source register, are compared in a first instruction, and as a result of comparison, larger data is stored in the specific register, while smaller data is stored in the source register or in an operand-specified destination register other than the source register.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
