ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a multiprocessor system and method arranged, in one embodiment, as an image and graphics processor. The processor is structured with several individual processors all having communication links to several memories without restriction. A crossbar switch serves to establish the processor memory links and an inter-processor communication link allows the processors to communicate with each other for the purpose of establishing operational modes. A parameter memory, accessible via the crossbar switch, is used in conjunction with the communication link for control purposes. The entire image processor, including the individual processors, the crossbar switch and the memories, is contained on a single silicon chip.
