ABSTRACT:
Improved techniques for executing instructions in a pipelined manner that may reduce stalls that occur when executing dependent instructions are provided. Stalls may be reduced by utilizing a cascaded arrangement of pipelines with execution units that are delayed with respect to each other. This cascaded delayed arrangement allows dependent instructions to be issued within a common issue group by scheduling them for execution in different pipelines to execute at different times.
