VECTOR PROCESSOR CONFIGURED TO OPERATE ON VARIABLE LENGTH VECTORS USING IMPLICITLY TYPED INSTRUCTIONS

摘要

A computer processor is disclosed. The computer processor may comprise a vector unit comprising a vector register file comprising one or more registers to hold a varying number of elements. The computer processor may further comprise processing logic configured to implicitly type each of the varying number of elements in the vector register file. The computer processor may be implemented as a monolithic integrated circuit.
