ABSTRACT:
A data-driven information processing device includes a program storage mechanism, a data pair generation mechanism, an operation processing mechanism, a circular pipeline for data transfer among the program storage mechanism, the pair data generation mechanism and the operation processing mechanism in a token format, and a data input/output control circuit connected to the circular pipeline. The data pair generation mechanism carries out a generation process of a data pair in a different manner depending upon whether the argument data companion to the argument data in an applied token is a constant or not. The data pair generation mechanism may include, for example, a constant data processing unit and a dynamic data pair generation mechanism. The data pair generation mechanism selects constant data output from the constant data processing unit when the argument data companion to the argument data in an applied token is a constant, and selects the argument data companion to an output of the dynamic data pair generation mechanism otherwise. The selected data is used to assemble a token. A plurality of dynamic data pair generation mechanisms are included, and an apparatus is disclosed for operating the dynamic data pair generation mechanism in an interleaving manner.
