ABSTRACT:
In a central processing unit, the processes of two kinds of pipelines, i.e., a pipeline between instructions and pipelines in the instructions, can be executed in accordance with common pipeline control logic, wherein the control logic can be simplified and reduced.
Each part of a machine word determining at least one of each operand and operation is independently configured on a byte basis. The execution of each of instructions other than orthogonal instructions is pipeline-processed. The processes on at least one of each operand and operation in the orthogonal instructions are pipelined. The configurations of the pipelines in the orthogonal instructions and the pipeline between the instructions other than the orthogonal instructions are the same.
