Abstract

A system for processing segmentation tags to generate a block level tag representative of a group of segmentation tags. The system includes first and second statistic compilation circuits, each of the compilation circuits being connected to receive segmentation tags and compile a statistic for a plurality of the received segmentation tags. An address controller connected to the first and second statistic compilation circuits operates to select one of the first and second compilation circuits to receive the segmentation tags.
