ABSTRACT:
A digital memory comprising a plurality of contiguous circulating serial data storage loops and a plurality of processing elements. Each pair of adjacent loops are coupled to a processing element such that each loop is coupled through two processing elements displaced by one-half loop length. Each processing element includes a serial comparator and a loop control circuit for either isolating or exchanging the data on the two incident loops. Additional circuits are included in each processing element which in combination with the comparator and loop control provide the memory, as the loop data circulates through the processing elements, with the capability of performing an ascending or descending sort of its contents, an associative search of its contents with retrieval of located data, an updating of stored data records, a loading or unloading of a record file or data base and a dynamic reconfiguration of the memory structure.
