In one embodiment, a processor includes 32-bit and 64-bit machine level instructions to compute a 3D Z-curve Index. A processor decode unit is configured to decode a z-curve ordering instruction having three source operands, each operand associated with one of a first, second, or third coordinate and a processor execution unit is configured to execute the decoded instruction before outputting the 3D Z-curve index to a location specified by a destination operand. |
