ABSTRACT:
A disclosed image processing apparatus includes a SIMD microprocessor in which multiple processor elements are arranged in one dimension, each of the processor elements including multiple access registers arranged in stages for storing image data; and multiple data processing devices corresponding one-to-one with the stages of the access registers, arranged in one dimension in the same direction as the processor elements, and configured to read and write image data from/to the access registers. The access registers of each of the stages, each of which access registers is included in a different one of the processor elements, are connected with a common line. Wiring outlets, each of which connects the common line of a different one of the stages to a corresponding data processing device, are individually disposed within the SIMD microprocessor in such a manner that each wiring outlet has a shortest possible distance to the corresponding data processing device.
