Abstract

A method of operation within an integrated-circuit processing device having a plurality of execution lanes. Upon receiving an instruction to exchange data between the execution lanes, respective requests from the execution lanes are examined to determine a set of the execution lanes that may send data to one or more others of the execution lanes during a first interval. Each execution lane within the set of the execution lanes is signaled to indicate that the execution lane may send data to the one or others of the execution lanes.
