Abstract
A data driven data processing apparatus executes a data flow graph as a program for a plurality of processing elements arranged in a pipeline ring for transferring packets of scalar and vector operation data. An execution circuit on the pipeline ring controls execution of scalar and vector operations by separate scalar and vector operation circuits. The execution circuit has a single arithmetic logic circuit that performs both the scalar and vector operations, preferably processing in a time-shared, parallel manner.
