Abstract

A data buffering device which contains an input unit adapted to sequentially receive a two-dimensional array of data structures organized by an index pair with a first index stepwise traversing first-index values in a meandering manner defined by a first and a second meandering direction. The invention further includes a data buffering method, and a data processing method and device; each of which incorporates the above described features of the data buffering device.
