ABSTRACT:
According to the invention, a processing core is disclosed that includes a first source register, a number of second operands, a destination register, and a number of arithmetic processors. A bitwise inverter is coupled to at least one of the first number of operands and the second number of operands. The first source register includes a plurality of first operands and the destination register includes a plurality of results. The number of arithmetic processors are respectively coupled to the first operands, second operands and results, wherein each arithmetic processor computes one of a sum and a difference of the first operand and a respective second operand.
