In arithmetic/logic units (ALU) provided corresponding to entries, an MIMD instruction decoder generating a group of control signals in accordance with a Multiple Instruction-Multiple Data (MIMD) instruction and an MIMD register storing data designating the MIMD instruction are provided, and an inter-ALU communication circuit is provided. The amount and direction of movement of the inter-ALU communication circuit are set by data bits stored in a movement data register. It is possible to execute data movement and arithmetic/logic operation with the amount of movement and operation instruction set individually for each ALU unit. Therefore, in a Single Instruction-Multiple Data type processing device, Multiple Instruction-Multiple Data operation can be executed at high speed in a flexible manner.
