Abstract
A parallel processing system in which access contention of a read cycle from a processing unit side to a local shared memory and a write cycle from a shared bus system side on the local shared memory is reduced and a memory LSI which may be used in such unit are provided. The parallel processing system comprises a local shared memory between the processor and a shared bus. Address and data input means (WA and DI) for writing data to a memory cell and address input means (RA) and data output means (DO) for reading data are provided independently from each other to parallelize operations for reading from the processor side and for writing from the shared bus side.
