Publication number: 20230267003Abstract: Processing input data for transmittal to a data consumer such as an artificial intelligence engine is performed by arranging the input data into a uniform structure made up of sticks of data combined to form pages of sticks. A stick is any well-sized set of input data elements whereby the size of the stick is fixed. A masking pattern is established for sticks of data having certain ranges of invalid data for consumption of partial sticks while maintaining validity of the input data being transferred. The mask pattern is derived based on set-active-mask-and-value (SAMV) instructions. The derived mask pattern is carried forward for subsequent load instructions to the data consumer.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 23, 2022Publication date: August 24, 2023Inventors: Cedric Lichtenau, Vijayalakshmi Srinivasan, Sunil K Shukla, Swagath Venkataramani, Kailash Gopalakrishnan, Holger Horbach, Razvan Peter Figuli, Wei Wang, YULONG LI, Martin A Lutz
