Abstract
A reduced precision based programmable and single instruction multiple data (SIMD) dataflow architecture includes reduced precision execution units with a majority of the execution units operating at reduced precision and a minority of the execution units are capable of operating at higher precision. The execution units operate in parallel within a programmable execution element to share instruction fetch, decode, and issue pipelines and operate on the same instruction in lock-step to minimize instruction-related overhead.
