Abstract
The general purpose of the present invention is to provide a optimized procedure for performing matrix by matrix multiplication in a parallel architecture computer, either digital or optical, that is generally capable of handling two-dimensionally structured image data sets. The present invention provides a process for performing matrix by matrix multiplication in a parallel computer architecture having first and second means for representing spatially distributed data values obtainable from corresponding first and second matrices of values, said matrices having therein defined rows and columns of said values and said first and second data representing means having defined therein rows and columns of data representation positions, said architecture further having means for accumulating spatially distributed resultant values, the process comprising the steps of:
