ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for executing an instruction in a computational pipeline includes a first instruction memory. The first instruction memory includes a first plurality of instruction fields, each of which is capable of holding an instruction therein. Each of a first plurality of value fields is uniquely associated with a corresponding instruction field from the first plurality of instruction fields. Each value field is capable of holding a data value therein that is likely to be required in executing an instruction held in the instruction field.
