Signal processing device and method of planning connections between processors in a signal processing device |
摘要 |
A signal processing device contains a plurality of processing elements with inputs and outputs coupled via a switch-matrix for communication of signal streams between a set of processes. An arbiter selects the connections made by the switch-matrix. The arbiter makes allocations of inputs and outputs that are to be connected to each other in each of successive time-slots. The allocations for communication of signal streams between the set of processes for a plurality of time-slots are made in advance. The arbiter can also receive requests for making further connections between inputs and outputs. In that case, the arbiter makes said further connection in a time-slot in which the requested inputs and outputs are not used by the set of processes. A method of planning is provided which ensures that full utilization of the switch-matrix is possible.
