Method of and apparatus for data distribution of processing load

摘要

A data distributing method and an apparatus employing such method are disclosed, wherein a memory group stores the cumulative value of weighted values indicating data processing load of each kind of data or work unit outputted from a coupling unit. A control circuit recognizes the kind of data that is inputted to each of two input lines of the coupling units, judges whether or not there is a deviation in distribution of data or work units which are transferred from a first memory group to a second memory group on the basis of the cumulative value stored in the memory groups that correspond to the kinds of data recognized, and changes over connection patterns of switch in the coupling unit so that any deviation is corrected, thereby equally distributing the data processing load of data or work units to the second memory group.
