  • Patent number: 12223011
    Abstract: Techniques for data manipulation using integer matrix multiplication using pipelining are disclosed. A first integer matrix with dimensions m×k and a second integer matrix with dimensions k×n are obtained for matrix multiplication within a processor. The first and second integer matrices employ a two's complement variable radix point data representation. The first and second integer matrices are distilled into (j×j) submatrices. A first variable radix point format and an initial value for an accumulator register are configured dynamically. A first variable radix point format is configured dynamically for the first integer matrix and a second variable radix point format is configured dynamically for the second integer matrix. Multiply-accumulate operations are executed in a pipelined fashion on the (j×j) submatrices of the first integer matrix and the second integer matrix, where a third variable radix point format is configured for the result.
