ABSTRACT:
In a multiprocessor system having a plurality of processors and main memory common to the processors, each processor includes at least one vector calculation unit which is specific to a vector calculation and which is independent of the vector calculation units in the other processors. A register holds a configuration signal representative of configuration of the vector calculation units in each processor. An access control unit controls access operations of the processors on the basis of the configuration signals in the processors to make the processors selectively access the main memory. Thus, the processors individually carry out the vector calculations to individually access the main memory.
