Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a mechanism for issuing instructions in a processor (e.g., a vector processor) implemented as an overlay on programmable hardware (e.g., a field programmable gate array (FPGA) device). Implementations described herein include features for optimizing resource availability on programmable hardware units and enabling superscalar execution when coupled with a temporal single-instruction multiple data (SIMD). Systems described herein involve an issue component of a processor controller (e.g., a vector processor controller) that enables fast and efficient instruction issue while verifying that structural and data hazards between instructions have been resolved.
