Abstract

An operation processing apparatus is provided. The operation processing apparatus includes a vector operator and cores. The vector operator processes a vector operation with respect to an instruction that uses the vector operation, and each core includes a scalar operator that processes a scalar operation with respect to an instruction that does not use the vector operation. The vector operator is shared by the cores.
