A command chain system includes plurality of processing elements, a memory, and a chain engine. The chain engine is in communication with the memory and accesses instructions in the memory. The chain engine accesses a subroutine stored in the memory. The chain engine sends a command to a specialized hardware. The chain engine performs an action determined by one or more of the operation-code portion, the skip portion, and the loop-count portion of the instruction.
