Parallel processing system

摘要

A parallel processing system that has a synchronous function of creating a synchronous signal in a processing element to be synchronized by shifting synchronously from a program process to the next program process and can execute such a synchronous operation in a pipeline processing mode. The parallel processing system includes a plurality of signal lines arranged between a mutual connecting unit and each of the processing elements for transmitting the status information regarding each of the processing elements from the mutual connecting unit to all of the processing elements, and the transmitting circuit sequentially transmitting contents stored in the status storage unit to the plurality of signal lines, with predetermined phase difference, and then transmitting them in parallel to each of the processing elements. This parallel processing system is applicable to a computing system in which a plurality of processing elements share one program to execute a parallel processing operation.
