Abstract

A Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) processor having an instruction set with a reduced size resulting in a small number of bits being necessary to specify registers. The VLIW processor includes a register file, and first through third operation units, and executes a very long instruction word. Further, the very long instruction word includes a register specifying field which specifies a least one of the registers in the register file and a plurality of instructions. The operand of each instruction includes bits src, src, and dst, which indicate whether or not the registers specified by the register specifying field are to be used as the source register and the destination register.
