Abstract
Embodiments of systems, apparatuses, and methods for instruction execution. In some embodiments, an instruction has fields for a first and a second source operand, and a destination operand. When executed, the instruction causes an arithmetic operation on broadcasted packed data elements of the first source operand and storage of results of each arithmetic operation in the destination operand, wherein the packed data elements of the first source operand to be broadcast are dictated by values of packed data elements stored in a second source operand, wherein the arithmetic operation is defined by the instruction.
