SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ADAPTIVELY MANAGING REGISTERS WITH INOPERATIVE CELLS

摘要

Systems and methods for adaptively managing registers in an instruction processor are disclosed. The system identifies one or more registers with inoperable cells. An operand manager identifies a set of operable cells within the one or more registers with inoperable cells and determines if a present instruction will use an operand that can be supported by the set of operable cells. When the set of operable cells can support the operand, the operand manager generates an assignment which is communicated to a register file manager.
