VECTOR TAILGATING IN COMPUTERS WITH VECTOR REGISTERS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Improved performance is obtained in computers of the type having vector registers which communicate with one or more functional units and common memory. As elements of a vector are read from a vector register for transmission to common memory or as operands to a func- tional unit, the vector register immediately becomes available to receive and store elements of a vector from common memory or a functional unit. The element-by- element storing takes place simultaneously with the element-by-element reading, and trails the reading by at least one element so as to not overwrite elements yet to be read. Through the use of this technique a vector register can be loaded with a vector for a subsequent operation without having to wait for the completion of the previous operation which uses the same vector register.
