ABSTRACT:
A method to handle data dependencies in a pipelined computer system is disclosed. The method includes allocating a plurality of registers, enabling execution of computer instructions concurrently by using the plurality of registers, and tracking and reducing data dependencies in the computer instructions by correlating a busy condition of a computer instruction to each register.
