| 31. | The execution units that do all the number crunching are a surprisingly small part of the total area.
|
| 32. | In contrast, one VLIW instruction encodes multiple operations, at least one operation for each execution unit of a device.
|
| 33. | Before the reprieve, yellow police tape sealed off entrances to the execution unit, and three television trucks stood by.
|
| 34. | "It wasn't an execution unit.
|
| 35. | Designs that are said to be " superscalar " include a long instruction pipeline and multiple identical execution units.
|
| 36. | Hardware threads can help make better use of the large number of registers and execution units in large CPUs.
|
| 37. | The instruction queues issue their instructions to their execution units dynamically depending on the availability of operands and resources.
|
| 38. | To get better CPI values without pipelining, the number of execution units must be greater than the number of stages.
|
| 39. | If so they are dispatched to available execution units, resulting in the ability for several instructions to be executed simultaneously.
|
| 40. | Up to eight instructions from four threads could be dispatched to eight integer and four floating-point execution units every cycle.
