Gather-scatter is a type of memory addressing that often arises when addressing vectors in sparse linear algebra operations. It is the vector-equivalent of register indirect addressing, with gather involving indexed reads and scatter indexed writes. Vector processors have hardware support for gather-scatter operations, providing instructions such as ''Load Vector Indexed'' for gather and ''Store Vector Indexed'' for scatter. ==Definition== Denoting by the list of indices of sparse vector , the sparse gather of dense into denoted , assigns .〔(BLAS Technical Forum standard, Chapter 3: Sparse BLAS. )〕 The sparse scatter, denoted is the reverse operation. It copies the nonzero values of sparse into the corresponding locations in the dense vector , i.e. . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gather-scatter (vector addressing)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
