IMPLEMENTING INSTRUCTION SET ARCHITECTURES WITH NON-CONTIGUOUS REGISTER FILE SPECIFIERS

摘要

There are provided methods and computer program products for implementing instruction set architectures with non-contiguous register file specifiers. A method for processing instruction code includes processing a fixed-width instruction of a fixed-width instruction set using a non-contiguous register specifier of a non-contiguous register specification. The fixed-width instruction includes the non-contiguous register specifier.
