System and Method for Variable Lane Architecture

A system and method for variable lane architecture includes memory blocks located in a memory bank, one or more computing nodes forming a vector instruction pipeline for executing a task, each of the computing nodes located in the memory bank, each of the computing nodes executing a portion of the task independently of other ones of the computing nodes, and a global program controller unit (GPCU) forming a scalar instruction pipeline for executing the task, the GPCU configured to schedule instructions for the task at one or more of the computing nodes, the GPCU further configured to dispatch an address for the memory blocks used by each of the computing nodes to the computing nodes.
