Parallel Data Processing Apparatus

摘要

A method of controlling access to memory by a processing element in a plurality of processing elements arranged in a single instruction multiple data (SIMD) processing array is disclosed. Each processing element includes an internal memory unit, and a register file. The method comprises retrieving an address value from the register file of the processing element, the address value relating to an address in the internal memory of the processing element, and accessing the internal memory on the basis of the address value.
