Abstract
Implementations of wide atomic sequences are achieved by augmenting a load operation designed to initiate an atomic sequence and augmenting a conditional storing operation that typically terminates the atomic sequence. The augmented load operation is designed to further allocate a memory buffer besides initiating the atomic sequence. The conditional storing operation is augmented to check the allocated memory buffer for any data stored therein. If one or more data words are detected in the memory buffer, the conditional storing operation stores the detected data word(s) and another word provided as operand in a concatenation of memory locations. The achieved wide atomic sequences enable the hardware system to support wide memory operations and wide operations in general.
