A first instruction that is one of access instructions that are predicted to cause the bank conflict is replaced with a second instruction by changing an execute timing of the first instruction to a timing prior to the execute timing of the first instruction so as for the access instructions not to cause the bank conflict. Next, a load/store unit that is scheduled to access the bank according to the first instruction accesses the bank and reads out a data from the bank at an execute timing of the second instruction, and after that, the load/store unit is allowed to be inputted the read data at the execute timing of the first instruction. Accordingly, although the access instructions that are predicted to cause the bank conflict are allocated to the load/store units, the bank conflict can be prevented, so that it is possible to avoid deterioration in performance due the occurrence of the bank conflict. | 04-02-2009 |
