Abstract
A data processing array comprises a plurality of modules, each with a memory, positioned in an array of rows and columns interconnected by a pooling chain that carries data to and receives data from selected ones or groups of the modules. Each modules can also have light modulator elements for transmitting data as light signals and a light sensor for receiving data in the form of modulated light. Pooling switches in the pooling chain between modules open and close the pooling chain lines for selecting and grouping modules. Analog data lines separate from the pooling chain can also carry data to and from the modules. Pooling control lines connected to the switches turn the switches on and off for the selecting and grouping of modules. Module control lines, also separate from the pooling chain, connected to the modules enable various data input, output, and processing by the memory or other components in the module.
