This paper presents a scalable superscalar design method by using the Scheduling Pattern Algorithm.Out-of-order instruction scheduling is determined in advance by a set of scheduling patterns that are stored in a PLA.The scheduling pattern method is a new approach to dynamic scheduling in order to simplify hardware design.Also, it is a scalable design method which can resolve Functional Unit (FU) conflicts for any kind of FU configurations within the size (Ws) of the instruction window.
