Abstract: There is disclosed a processing apparatus including, as an instruction set, a complex conditional branch instruction, and a condition setting instruction. The complex conditional branch instruction is an instruction for performing comparison operation for one or each of a plural number of conditions, and for performing branching to a branch target specified, based on comparison operation between the results of the comparison operations performed and the branching condition value specified. The condition setting instruction is an instruction for setting the condition.

Abstract: Disclosed is a processor apparatus including a branch condition storage unit having a plurality of storage regions in each of which a branch condition set by a condition setting instruction is stored, an instruction decoder that decodes an instruction code, an instruction memory that stores therein the instruction code, an operation register used by a processor for operation, a branch condition comparison unit that performs a comparison operation for each of branch conditions, a conditional branch determination unit that makes a determination whether or not to perform program branching in a conditional branch instruction, a selector that makes selection between a branch destination address and a next instruction address, based on an output value of the condition branch determination unit, and a program counter that indicates a processor instruction executing position.
