=== MIPS V === MIPS V added a new data type, the Paired Single (PS), which consisted of two single-precision (32-bit) floating-point numbers stored in the existing 64-bit floating-point registers. Variants of existing floating-point instructions for arithmetic, compare and conditional move were added to operate on this data type in a SIMD fashion. New instructions were added for loading, rearranging and converting PS data.<ref name=Sweetman1999/>{{rp|426β429}} It was the first instruction set to exploit floating-point SIMD with existing resources.<ref name="MPR:1996-11-18"/>
