摘要:
An instruction processing apparatus using a microprogram instruction which implements re-reading operation. The instruction execution apparatus is provided with a queue stack, a unit halting requests for reading subsequent instructions at the instruction of a microprogram, and a unit releasing this halt. Further, by instruction the reading of the subsequent instructions using the microprogram control information, it becomes possible to simultaneously execute the microprogram and instruction re-reading processing. Because the Program Status Word Instruction Address (PSWIAR) of the load control (LCTL) plus the instruction length of the PSWIAR makes an instruction fetch address of the LCTL, the hardware of the instruction re-read address production circuit (which is a part of the instruction processing circuit) can be used. This reduces the: T-cycle instruction address register (TIAR), T-cycle instruction length code (TILC), A-cycle instruction address register (AIAR), the A-cycle instruction length code (AILC), and an adder for adding the TILC with the TIAR.

A method and device are disclosed for easy and proper optimization of a logic circuit having a hierarchical structure. A limit value storage unit stores in advance target delay values that are the limit values of delay times. A flip-flop extraction unit extracts flip-flops included in the logic circuit that is the object of optimization and that is stored in a logic circuit storage unit. A hierarchy modification unit traces the logic circuit in the opposite direction of signal flow from an external output terminal of the logic circuit or the input of an extracted flip-flop until reaching an external input terminal of the logic circuit or another flip-flop and then modifies the hierarchical structure of the logic circuit to a structure constituted by hierarchical circuits that are each including logic elements that were passed through and flip-flops that were reached. A hierarchical circuit merge unit joins hierarchical circuits that include the same flip-flop. A logic optimization execution unit optimizes each of the hierarchical circuits such that their delay times satisfy the target delay values.

A circuit design apparatus of the present invention includes a first element which divides a circuit into a plurality of divided circuits and a second element which calculates individual constraint values of the divided circuits, respectively, using a constraint value of the circuit. A third element of the present invention optimizes each of the divided circuits based on the corresponding individual constraint values. A fourth element merges the divided circuits, which are optimized by the third element, into one circuit.
