P90-002 A massively parallel processing system comprising a plurality of processing nodes controlled in parallel by a controller. The processing nodes are interconnected by a plurality of communications links. Each processing node comprisesa memory, a transposer module and a router node. The memory stores data in sliceformat. The transposer module is connected to the memory and generates transpose data words of selected ones of the data slices from the memory. The router node is connected to the transposer module and to the communications links and transfers transpose data words over the communications links to thereby trans-fer the data slices between processing nodes. Finally, the controller controls the memories, transposer modules and router nodes of the processing nodes in parallel, to facilitate transfer of data slices among the processing nodes in unison.
