Abstract
Devices and techniques for short-thread rescheduling in a processor are described herein. When an instruction for a thread completes, a result is produced. The condition that the same thread is scheduled in a next execution slot and that the next instruction of the thread will use the result can be detected. In response to this condition, the result can be provided directly to an execution unit for the next instruction.
