Abstract
An apparatus comprises a plurality of memory units organized as a hierarchical memory system, wherein each of at least some of the memory units is associated with a processor element; predictor circuitry to perform a prediction process to determine a predicted redundancy period of result data of a data processing operation to be performed, indicating a predicted point when said result data will be next accessed; and an operation controller to cause a selected processor element to perform said data processing operation, wherein said selected processor element is selected based on said predicted redundancy period.
