  • Patent number: 10740098
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for providing a comparison result vector of a predefined number of elements w resulting from comparison of multiple vectors of compressed data within a processor comprising registers of same size m is provided. Vector elements of the comparison result vector are stored in a register of the registers. Zero bits are padded between vector elements of each of the comparison result vectors. A compare bit result vector indicative of the vector elements is generated for accessing the results of the comparison in the comparison result vector.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 6, 2018
    Date of Patent: August 11, 2020
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation

  • Patent number: 10579375
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates performing of comparisons between a first and a second vector. The memory location has a size or length of m bits. A compare block to compare two single bits is used. The compare block comprises: two input bits associated to one of the bits from the first and the second vector respectively; a greater than input bit and a lower than input bit; a cascade enable input bit to control if the greater than input bit and the lower than input bit are considered; a greater than result bit, a lower than result bit, and an equal result bit. A daisy chaining of m of the one-bit compare blocks is performed such that the result bits of one compare block represents the compare result of the previous compare blocks in the chain.
