APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PARALLEL PROCESSING DATA FLOW

摘要

PURPOSE: A parallel data flow processing device and a method thereof are provided to process data at high speed while keeping order without regard to the number of data flows by deciding order of input data and outputting data processed parallelly by processors according to the order. CONSTITUTION: A flow discriminator(103) discriminates the flow of the first data inputted. A processor allocator(105) assigns a processor which does not operate among processors(109) to the first data. If the second data which equally has the discriminated flow is processed with one processor, an order decision unit(107) decides order of the first data. A sorter(111) receives the first data processed with the allocated processor and outputs according to the order. The flow discriminator generates flow ID information about the discriminated flow.
