Abstract
The present invention provides for a computer system having a plurality of parallel processor units with each processor unit associated with at least one register for receiving data for the processor unit. The computer system has a bus unit, coupled to the output of each processor unit and the associated register of each processor unit, to transfer the output data of a first processor unit into an associated register of a second processor unit in a single computer operation. The second processor unit is prevented from reading the associated register until the bus unit transfers the output data from the first processor unit to the second processor unit.
