Abstract
A processor core includes a storage device which stores a composite very large instruction word (VLIW) instruction, an instruction unit which obtains the composite VLIW instruction from the storage device and decodes the composite VLIW instruction to determine an operation to perform, and a composite VLIW instruction execution unit which executes the decoded composite VLIW instruction to perform the operation.
