METHOD FOR DATA PROCESSING IN A MULTI-PROCESSOR DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM AND A CORRESPONDING DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM

摘要

The invention is based on the idea to separate a synchronisation operation from reading and writing operations. Therefore, a method for data processing in the data processing system is provided, wherein said data processing system comprises a first and at least a second processor for processing streams of data objects, wherein said first processor passes data objects from a stream of data objects to the second processor. Said data processing system further comprises at least one memory for storing and retrieving data objects, wherein a shared access of said first and second processors is provided. The processors perform a read operations and/or write operations in order to exchange data objects with his said memory. Said processors further perform inquiry operations and/or commit operations in order to synchronise a data object transfer between tasks which are executed by said processors. Said inquiry operations and said commit operations are performed independently of said read operations and said write operations by said processors.
