Abstract
A data driven type information processor includes a program storing unit, a junction unit, a paired data detecting unit, a branch unit and an operation processing unit. The program storing unit has a program memory divided into N regions in each of which a data flow program which is previously divided is stored. In operation, the program storing unit individually and simultaneously addresses each of the N regions based on destination information in an applied data packet to collectively read program data from the respective regions. The read N program data are sequentially applied to the operation processing unit through the junction unit, the paired data detecting unit and the branch unit.
