摘要:
Provided is a processor and method of performing speculative load instructions of the processor in which a load instruction is performed only in the case where the load instruction substantially accesses a memory. A load instruction for canceling operations is performed in other cases except the above case, so that problems occurring by accessing an input/output (I/O) mapped memory area and the like at the time of performing speculative load instructions can be prevented using only a software-like method, thereby improving the performance of a processor.

A method and system for an early Z test in a tile-based three-dimensional rendering is provided. In the method and system for an early Z test, a portion which is not displayed to a user is removed prior to performing a rasterization process, and thereby performing the 3D rendering efficiently. The method includes segmenting a scene into tiles for performing a rendering with respect to a triangle; selecting a first tile of the tiles, which has a tile Z value less than a minimum Z value of the triangle; and performing the rendering with respect to the triangle in remaining tiles excluding the selected first tile of the tiles.
摘要:
A tile binning method including: dividing a scene for rendering a triangle, into a plurality of tiles; determining identification values of tile nodes of each of the tiles; and identifying a tile including an entirety or a part of the triangle from the tiles, based on the identification value of the tile nodes for each of the tiles.

摘要:
A method of sharing a coarse grained array and a processor using the method is provided. A processor includes a first processor core including a plurality of first functional units which execute a first instruction set, a second processor core including a plurality of second functional units which execute a second instruction set, and a coarse grained array including a plurality of third functional units which execute a portion of instructions of the first instruction set and/or the second instruction set, instead of the first processor core and/or the second processor core.

摘要:
A reconfigurable processor comprising a configuration memory for storing a configuration bit for at least one loop configuration; a valid information memory for storing bit information indicating whether an operation in a loop is a delay operation; and at least one processing unit for determining whether an operation in a next cycle is the delay operation by referring to the bit information transmitted from the valid information memory, and selectively performing a change and an implementation of a configuration according to the configuration bit from the configuration memory based on the determined results.
