Abstract

A method for a parallel shift right merge of data. The method of one embodiment comprises receiving a shift count of M. A first operand having a first set of L data elements is shifted left by ‘L−M’ data elements. A second operand having a second set of L data elements is shifted right by M data elements. The shifted first set is merged with the shifted second set to generate a resultant having L data elements.
