# Pastebin PksyyEf8 ah: ItaniumĀ® architecture instructions are grouped together in 128-bit aligned containers called bundles. Each bundle contains three 41-bit instruction slots, and a 5-bit template field. The template field specifies which type of execution unit processes each instruction in the bundle. Bit 0 is set to 1 if there is a stop at the end of a bundle. There is no fixed relation between the boundaries of an instruction group and the boundaries of a bundle.
