Abstract

A data processing system, for processing programs in the form of networks of connected processing elements each relating to an arithmetic or logical operation, includes a memory for storing code representations of the processing elements and process data, processing apparatus including address computation circuitry for generating addresses for the memory and arithmetic and logic circuitry for processing the process data. A finite state machine receives the code representations of the processing elements and generates control signals for controlling the address computation circuitry, arithmetic and logic circuitry and memory in response to the nature of the processing element.
