Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods are disclosed for accelerated vector-reduction operations. Some systems may include a vector register file configured to store register values of an instruction set architecture in physical registers; and an execution circuitry configured to, responsive to a folding micro-op: read a vector from a physical register of the vector register file or from bypass circuitry; partition the elements of the vector into a first subset of elements with even indices and a second subset with elements with odd indices; and apply a reduction operation to combine elements from the second subset of elements with corresponding elements from the first subset of elements to obtain a set of reduced elements.
