Abstract

The system for conducting intensive multitask and multistream calculation in real time comprises a central processor core (SPP) for supporting the system software and comprising a control unit (ESCU) for assigning threads of an application, the non-critical threads being run by the central processor core (SPP), whereas the intensive or specialized threads are assigned to an auxiliary processing part (APP) comprising a set of N auxiliary calculation units (APU0, . . . , APUN-1) that are optimized for fast processing of certain operations, a memory space (SMS) shared by the auxiliary calculation units (APU0, . . . , APUN-1) via an internal network and a unit (ACU) for controlling and assigning the auxiliary resources. The various elements of the system are arranged in such a manner that communication between the various auxiliary calculation units (APU0, . . . , APUN-1) or between those auxiliary calculation units (APU0, . . . , APUN-1) and the central processor core (SPP) is effected via the shared memory space (SMS) and the internal network.
