ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for efficiently overlapping multiple operand types is used in a microprocessor which includes a plurality of execution units and a mechanism to provide operations, which include one or more operands, to the plurality of execution units. Each of the plurality of execution units interprets the one or more operands as different types of operands, and the mechanism to provide operations overlaps the different types of operands.
