Abstract
A data driven information processor includes an input control portion for producing a first data packet including common identification information and a plurality of pieces of data, a junction portion for controlling input of the first data packet and a second data packet, a firing control portion for detecting data to be paired with data in the selected data packet and outputting paired data, an operation processing portion for operating the paired data, a program storage portion for producing and outputting a second data packet based on a result of operation, and a branching portion for controlling whether to output the second data packet to the junction portion or to another data driven information processor. A plurality of such data driven information processors are connected for parallel processing.
