A system, processor, and method for processing multiple dimension data. A single rectangular data array having a single data port may store a set of data elements representing a multi-dimensional pixel array. A load/store unit may receive the set of data elements and store them divided among a plurality of individually addressable data arrays each having separate address ports. Each individually addressable data array may include at most a single row that stores data elements from a sub-set of the set of data elements representing a multi-dimensional sub-array of the pixel array. A processor may simultaneously access the single row of each of the plurality of individually addressable data arrays by accessing the corresponding respective address ports for each individually addressable data array to retrieve the complete sub-set of data elements in a single computational cycle. An execution unit may execute instruction(s) on the sub- set of data elements. |
