Abstract
A continuous data server apparatus incorporating a plurality of buffer memory units for storing the continuous data read out by the data memory control units and to be given to the communication control unit, at least one buffer memory unit being provided dedicatedly for each combination of one data memory control unit group formed by at least one data memory control unit and one communication control unit group formed by at least one communication control unit. The apparatus may further incorporate a plurality of calculation units connected in series, where each calculation unit is connected between corresponding one data memory control unit group and at least one buffer memory unit, and carrying out a prescribed calculation processing. The continuous data can be arranged over a plurality of data memory control units in word units, such that the data memory control units read out the continuous data in block units, the buffer memory units store the continuous data in block units, and the communication control unit transfers the continuous data obtained by reading out data the buffer memory units sequentially in word units.
