PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a parallel subword comparison instruction for enabling efficient comparison of blocks of an image and a relevant operation. SOLUTION: The present invention provides parallel subword (for example, comparison) instruction (or group of such instructions) for selecting result register subword position for results of instructions. A specialized "shift" instruction for enabling results of a plurality of parallel subword instructions of conventional technique to combine is made unnecessary by this new instruction. Thus, programming becomes easy and performance is improved. In addition, the present invention provides a program for utilizing the new instruction and a data processor for executing the new instruction. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
