<p>The present invention provides an efficient method of forwarding and sharing information between functional units and register files in an effort to execute instructions. A digital signal processor includes a plurality of register blocks for storing data operands coupled to a plurality of data path units for executing instructions. Preferably, each register block is coupled to at least two data path units. In addition, the processor preferably has a plurality of forwarding paths which forward information from one data path unit to another. A scheduler efficiently forwards instructions to data path units based on information regarding the configuration of the processor and any restrictions which might be imposed on the scheduler.</p> |
