摘要:
A method for executing an instruction, the method includes: executing a compare and configure mask instruction, wherein the executing comprises: performing a comparison to provide a comparison result; and configuring, in response to the comparison result, a multiple bit mask that is stored in a multiple-purpose register; wherein all bits of the multiple bit mask are configured to have the same value; and applying an algorithmic operation on the multiple bit mask to provide an algorithmic operation result; wherein the algorithmic operation result represents an outcome of a high level programming language conditional statement.

摘要:
A method and device for initializing a plurality of fail silent computer nodes, coupled to a communication media; the plurality of fail silent computer nodes are adapted to exchange data frames via the communication media. The initialization is based upon sending an initialization word for synchronizing the plurality fail silent computer nodes. The transmission of an initialization word depends upon the state of the computer system and especially the status of the communication media.
