1. A method performed by an asynchronous processor using a hierarchical token system, the method comprising:
receiving, by a primary processing unit in a set of primary processing units of a primary token system of the asynchronous processor, a father token belonging to the primary token system for gating and passing a set of father tokens in a predefined order in the set of primary processing units, wherein the primary token system includes a closed loop token system, wherein the father token is designated for triggering, in a set of secondary units of the hierarchical token system of the asynchronous processor, a secondary token system for gating and passing a set of child tokens in a second predefined order, and wherein the set of primary processing units and the set of secondary units are different; consuming the father token in the primary processing unit; and in response to consuming the father token in the primary processing unit, gating a start child token in the second predefined order of the secondary token system in a secondary unit in the set of secondary units. |
