Abstract
A structure (and method) including a plurality of coprocessing units and a controller that selectively loads data for processing on the plurality of coprocessing units, using a compound loading instruction. The compound loading instruction includes a plurality of low-level software instructions that preliminarily processes input data in a manner predetermined to simulate an effect of a single hardware loading instruction that would provide optimal loading of complex matrix data by loading input data in accordance with the effect of multiplying i·i=−1.
