Abstract
A process system more efficiently processes information composed of significant information and insignificant information. The system includes an input portion which selects significant information from information inputted through a plurality of input terminals. The system recognizes each significance degree which indicate a time duration of the significant information as a value showing an input state. An operation circuit carries out a predetermined logic operation for the significant information propagated from the input portion. An output portion compares each significance degree of the significant information obtained from the logic operation results of the operation circuit with a predetermined threshold value. The output portion recognizes each significance degree obtained from the logic operation result as a value indicating an output state. When the significance degree is greater than the threshold value the output portion outputs significant information having the significance degree and outputs insignificant information when the significance degree is less than the threshold value.
