ABSTRACT:
A method is provided of processing data representing pixel color having a luminance component and color difference components. The data is divided into first and second data portions, the first data portion comprising the luminance components and the second data portion comprising the color difference components. First and second instructions from a combined instruction word, and the first and second date portions are processed in parallel using first and second parallel processors within a processor architecture, the first and second parallel processors operating according to the first and second instructions, respectively. The processed first and second data portions are combined to provide processed pixel color data. This method uses parallel processor sections to process the luminance and color difference components. The parallel processor sections can then use instructions suited to the type of data being processed, providing an efficient method of processing the graphics data.
