Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for increasing the efficiency of data conversion in a coprocessor by using the statistical occurrence of data patterns to convert frequently occurring data patterns in one conversion cycle. In one embodiment, a coprocessor system is disclosed containing a converter engine, which includes a parser and a converter, an input buffer, and a result store. The input buffer is configured to transfer a set of source data to the converter engine, which converts the source data from first code format to a second code format, and sends the converted source data to the result store.
