Abstract: In one implementation a vector processor gather/scatter apparatus comprises a plurality of vector ports, and a random access memory, where the plurality of vector ports are in communication with the random access memory, and where one or more of the plurality of vector ports uses one or more of an address register and one or more of a stride register in communication with the random access memory to allow the gather/scatter of random access memory contents.

Abstract: In one implementation a vector processor unit having preload registers for at least some of vector length, vector constant, vector address, and vector stride. Each preload register has an input and an output. All the preload register inputs are coupled to receive a new vector parameters. Each of the preload registers' outputs are coupled to a first input of a respective multiplexor, and the second input of all the respective multiplexors are coupled to the new vector parameters.
