Abstract
Shiftable memory employs ring registers to shift a contiguous subset of data words stored in the ring registers within the shiftable memory. A shiftable memory includes a memory having built-in word-level shifting capability. The memory includes a plurality of ring registers to store data words. A contiguous subset of data words is shiftable between sets of the ring registers of the plurality from a first location to a second location within the memory. The contiguous subset of data words has a size that is smaller than a total size of the memory. The memory shifts only data words stored inside the contiguous subset when the contiguous subset is shifted.
