Abstract

A predetermined field of a fetched instruction is extended to secure an instruction type and an operand length. An instruction conversion table stores an extension field longer than the predetermined field in association with a bit pattern of the predetermined field of an instruction. An extension field acquisition unit acquires the extension field by referring to the instruction conversion table, with a bit pattern of the predetermined field of the fetched instruction. An instruction decoder performs a decoding process on a new instruction including the extension field in place of the predetermined field of the fetched instruction.
