A method is presented including decomposing a first value into many parts. Decomposing includes shifting () a rounded integer portion of the first value to generate a second value. Generating () a third value. Extracting () a plurality of significand bits from the second value to generate a fourth value. Extracting () a portion of bits from the fourth value to generate an integer component. Generating () a fifth value. Also the third value, the fifth value, and the integer component are either stored () in a memory or transmitted to an arithmetic logical unit (ALU).

Method and apparatus to extract integer and fractional components from floating-point data

A method for software pipelining nested loops combines the inner and outer loops of the nested loop to form a merged loop. One or more operations from the outer loop are activated on selected passes through the merged loop, and the merged loop is software pipelined.
