Abstract

Examines the set of the machine instruction of the cell array processor. A programming tool is developed to describe the machine instruction easily and the usage of this processor is described. Backpropagation is used as the example of the program. Because that the model could be efficiently computed with six kinds of pipelines, six kinds of the pipelines are described with the circuit and it translates them into the machine instruction automatically. As a result, it is possible for all pipelines to be programmed on the cell array processor and it is possible to execute at very high speed. The program, which the pipelined parallel execution of the neural network calculation on the reconfigurable processor is easily described in, is shown for the first time
