APPARATUSES AND METHODS TO ACCELERATE VECTOR MULTIPLICATION

Methods and apparatuses relating to accelerating vector multiplication. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a first buffer to store a first cache line of indices for elements of a first vector, a second buffer to store a second cache line of indices for elements of a second vector, a comparison unit to compare each index of the first cache line of indices with each index of the second cache line of indices, a plurality of multipliers to each multiply an element from the first vector and an element from the second vector for an index match from the comparison unit to produce a product, and an adder to add together the product from each of the plurality of multipliers.
