Abstract
In a parallel computer system having N parallel computing units a data pipeline connects all the computing units. In addition the computing units are coupled to a random access memory so that each computing unit is assigned to one column of the memory array. To perform a digital signal processing filter operation the required coefficients are stored in the memory so that one or more different filter operations can be carried out in an interleaved way.
