Abstract
A data processing system, method and computer program product to receive general-purpose code for iterative summation of an aggregate number of addends, wherein each addend has a precision. The data processing system operates an arithmetic hardware unit to set a first set of input registers to be a target of memory mapped registers and uses a broad-based adder to generate an adder result, wherein the broad-based adder has a broad-based adder size of inputs, and the broad-based adder size is less than the aggregate number of addends and greater than two, wherein each input register of the first set of input registers is connected to each input. Further, the data processing system may write the adder result to a storage array in memory, wherein the adder result is the sum of the inputs, and the adder result is placed in the storage array as indexed by a storage array index.
