Abstract

A unit for distributing and processing data packets has an administration unit for distributing the data packets to parallel-connected processor units. In this case, the processors of adjacent processor units have intermediate connections for interchanging data. The administration unit distributes the data packets in dependence on administration information for the data packets and/or on operating information for the processor units.
