  • Computer processor with instruction-specific schedulers
    Patent number: 6304953
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention is a computer processor that includes a first scheduler adapted to dispatch a first type of computer instructions, and a second scheduler coupled to the first scheduler and adapted to dispatch a second type of computer instructions. The first type of instructions all have a first latency and the second type of instructions all have a second latency. The first scheduler is skewed relative to the second scheduler so that when the first scheduler dispatches one of the first type of computer instructions having a first latency, the second scheduler will dispatch one of the second type of computer instructions that is dependent on the first type of computer instruction at a time equal to the first latency.
