PROCESSOR FOR ARRAY COMPUTER

摘要

PURPOSE:To improve the data transfer efficiency when just relaying is needed by adding a direction vector code showing the data transmitting direction and a bypass code indicating transmission of data without passing through a processing part to the data. CONSTITUTION:The transmission of data to a processing part is separated from the transmission of data to a processor connected to a further place without passing through the processing part. Thus a direction vector code showing the data transmitting direction is added to the data together with a bypass code indicating transmission of data without passing through the processing part. Then a transfer part in the processor checks said codes to relay the data or to transmit the data to the processing part. Therefore the data relaying time is shortened by providing a data relaying means independently of the processing part. In addition, the processing part is set free from the data relaying job and just required to process data. Thus the data processing function is improved.
