发明名称 INDIRECT FUNCTION CALL INSTRUCTION IN SYNCHRONOUS PARALLEL THREAD PROCESSOR
摘要 <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a SIMT architecture for performing an indirect function call by using a function pointer. <P>SOLUTION: An indirect branch instruction regards an address register for giving indirection function call capability to a single instruction multiple thread (SIMT) processor architecture as an argument. The indirect branch instruction executes an indirection function call, a virtual function call, and a switch statement, and is used to improve processing capability in comparison with the usage of a sequential chain of tests and branches. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT
