A parallel computer of a distributed storage type, which can omit an overhead time of a processing apparatus required for an address computation, is provided with an array address converting apparatus for generating a PE number of a PE retaining an array element that is an object of an access and an address on storage apparatus of the array element within the PE in each PE. Upon an access to an array element of array data, the processing apparatus activates the array address converting apparatus, a communicating apparatus gives an address on storage apparatus generated by the array address converting apparatus to a PE having a PE number generated by the array address converting apparatus to transmit access demand information for the array element. This parallel computer of a distributed storage type is applicable to a computer system for processing enormous data at a high speed such as numerical calculation, image processing or the like.
