A hyperprocessor includes a control processor controlling tasks executed by a plurality of processor cores, each of which may include multiple execution units, or special hardware units. The control processor schedules tasks according to control threads for the tasks created during compilation and comprising a hardware context including register files, a program counter and status bits for the respective task. The tasks are dispatched to the processor cores or special hardware units for parallel, sequential, out-of-order or speculative execution. A universal register file contains data to be operated on by the task, and an interconnect couples at least the processor cores or special hardware units to each other and to the universal register file, allowing each node to communicate with any other node.
