Abstract
A computing device comprising: a plurality of ALUs; a set of registers; a memory; a memory interface between the registers and the memory; a control unit controlling the ALUs by generating: at least one cycle i including both implementing at least one first computing operation by way of an arithmetic logic unit and downloading a first dataset from the memory to at least one register; at least one cycle ii, following the at least one cycle i, including implementing a second computing operation by way of an arithmetic logic unit, for which second computing operation at least part of the first dataset forms at least one operand.
