Abstract
A method of reducing a set of instructions for execution on a processor extracts information from a first instruction of the set of instructions. The method identifies unencoded space in one or more further instructions of the set of instructions and replaces the unencoded space of the one or more further instructions with the extracted information of the first instruction so as to form one or more amalgamated instructions. The method removes the first instruction from the set of instructions. A method of expanding a set of reduced instructions on a processor is also disclosed.
