Abstract
An information processing unit having a memory (16) storing a set of data elements in a data lattice structure. The memory is content-addressably searched by a pair of processors (12) and (14) controlling confronting traversals of the data lattice structure. A traversal controller (24) generates a search routine for the two processors (12) and (14) resulting in a natural two-way concurrency in their operation. A second memory (22) stores processing instructions and pointers used by the traversal controller (24) to generate the search routine. The processing instructions and pointers are extracted from the second memory under the control of processors (18) and (20). An interface processor (26) is connected to a communication link (28) connecting the information processing unit to utilization devices.
