As implied by its name, the Shiftrows operation processes different rows. A simple rotate with a different rotate width is performed. The second row of the 4x4 byte input data (the state) is shifted one byte position to the left in the matrix, the third row is shifted two byte positions to the left, and the fourth row is shifted three byte positions to the left. The first row is not changed.
Figure 4-4 illustrates the working of Shiftrows.
