Micro-architecture designs and methods for eager execution and fetching of instructions

Micro-architecture designs and methods are provided. A computer processing architecture may include an instruction cache for storing producer instructions, a half-instruction cache for storing half instructions, and eager shelves for storing a result of a first producer instruction. The computer processing architecture may fetch the first producer instruction and a first half instruction; send the first half instruction to the eager shelves; based on execution of the first producer instruction, send a second half instruction to the eager shelves; assemble the first producer instruction in the eager shelves based on the first half instruction and the second half instruction; and dispatch the first producer instruction for execution.https://digitalcommons.mtu.edu/patents/1155/thumbnail.jp
