ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor with a two bus structure and modulo addressing hardware which converts any section of main memory into an apparent circular address space for use as a five-fold data register. The modulo addressing hardware has a capability for circularly loading data into a sequential order or accessing data repeatedly for the evaluation of recursive algorithms. Thus, the modulo addressing hardware is useful in the rapid processing of such recursive software algorithms and in the solution of various mathematical series. More generally, it is useful for the rapid access of any data in memory. The described microprocessor uses the modulo addressing hardware concurrently with the execution of data manipulation instructions. A 64 bit wide instruction allows control of both modulo addressing hardware and the microprocessor CPU in a single micro instruction.
