ABSTRACT:
A computing system that includes a number of processing elements, a memory and a multi-task controller. In one embodiment, the path between the resource manager and the processing elements is the same for all processing elements. In another embodiment, the data path is different between different processing elements. A processing element receives a request via a strobe signal and data on a path between the resource manager and the processing element and reports status on the data path via a different strobe signal. The request to the processing element may specify floating point computations, as well as sorting operations. The processing element can use an auxiliary memory to aid in the sorting operations. Push and pop functions are processed by the processing element to facilitate the loading of multiple data operands in the processing element.
