<p>A multiprocessor computer comprises a plurality of identical processing elements, each of which comprises a processor, local memory addressable by the processor, and an arbitration unit for controlling access to the local memory from other processing elements. At least one processing element is connected to X neighbours (where X is an integer which is at least 1) for the sharing of data. The memory space addressable by the processor in the processing element is divided into at least X+1 regions. Addressing different regions of memory space causes data to be accessed in either the local memory or in the memories of neighbouring processing elements.</p> |
