Abstract
An embodiment of the present invention is a technique to perform floating-point operations for vector processing. An input queue captures a plurality of vector inputs. A scheduler dispatches the vector inputs. A plurality of floating-point (FP) pipelines generates FP results from operating on scalar components of the vector inputs dispatched from the scheduler. An arbiter and assembly unit arbitrates use of output section and assembles the FP results to write to the output section.
