An apparatus and method are described for performing a plurality of multiplication operations. For example, one embodiment of a processor comprises an instruction fetch unit to fetch a double-multiplication instruction from a memory subsystem, the double-multiplication instruction having three source operand values; a decode unit to decode the double-multiplication instruction to generate at least one uop; and an execution unit to execute the uop a first time to multiply a first and a second of the three source operand values to generate a first intermediate result and to execute the uop a second time to multiply the intermediate result with a third of the three source operand values to generate a final result. |
