INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING A PREDICATE VALUE

摘要

An integrated circuit device comprises at least one instruction processing module arranged to perform branch predication. The at least one instruction processing module comprises at least one predicate calculation module arranged to receive as an input at least one result vector for a predicate function and at least one conditional parameter value therefor and output a predicate result value from the at least one result vector based at least partly on the at least one received conditional parameter value.
