Previous: Instruction Issue Unit
This unit is responsible for executing all integer data type instructions
namely arithmetical calculations, logical calculations, shifts, loads,
stores, and branches. Four independent data paths enable up to four
integer instructions to be executed per cycle. The instruction mix
that is allowed for these four instructions is: 2 arithmetic operations,
1 memory operation (load/store) and 1 control transfer operation (branch).
