Note
A regular form: the silent e of pipeline simply takes -d, so one spelling serves both past tense and participle. Every verb sense behind it is transitive, which makes the passive natural: the oil was pipelined to the refinery, the chip's stages were pipelined. It also works as an adjective that compares with more and most, as in a more pipelined design or the most pipelined processor.
