Abstract
A microprocessor system comprises a computational array and a hardware data formatter. The computational array includes a plurality of computation units that each operates on a corresponding value addressed from memory. The values operated by the computation units are synchronously provided together to the computational array as a group of values to be processed in parallel. The hardware data formatter is configured to gather the group of values, wherein the group of values includes a first subset of values located consecutively in memory and a second subset of values located consecutively in memory. The first subset of values is not required to be located consecutively in the memory from the second subset of values.
