ABSTRACT:
Multiple coprocessor scheduling of parallel processing steps control with bit arithmetic using a bitmask for each data block buffer indicating next processing step and a bitmask of processing steps with available coprocessors. ANDs of the bitmasks for the buffers with the bitmask of processing steps determines processing steps to run. This allows for parallel processing on the data blocks in the various buffers.
