Abstract
A method for processing data using a time-stationary multiple-instruction word processing apparatus, arranged to execute a plurality of instructions in parallel, said method comprising the following steps: generating a set of multiple-instruction words (INS(i), INS(i+1), INS(i+2)), wherein each multiple-instruction word comprises a plurality of instruction fields, wherein each instruction field encodes control information for a corresponding resource of the processing apparatus, and wherein bit changes between an instruction field related to a no-operation instruction, and a corresponding instruction field of an adjacent multiple-instruction word are minimised; storing input data in a register file (RF, RF); processing data retrieved from the register file based on control information derived from the set of multiple-instruction words; disabling the write back of result data to the register file during execution of a no-operation instruction using a first dedicated no-operation code (ws, ws, wp, wp).
