Chain-serial matrix multipliers

摘要

Digital electronic apparatus for performing chain-serial matrix multiplications using a single pipeline multiplier supplies elements of the multiplicand and multiplier matrices to the digital memory from first and second memories. Each product matrix is temporarily stored in a third memory until such time as it is used to write the first memory for the next matrix multiplication in the series. This procedure avoids overwriting the first memory when its data are still required for application to the pipeline multiplier.
