ABSTRACT:
A synchronous processing system including a plurality of processors and a communications network. Each processor includes a synchronization combination storage element, status storage element, control element, judging element and shifting element. The synchronization combination storage element stores synchronization combination information showing a group of the processors being synchronized during the parallel execution of a program. The synchronous status storage element stores synchronous status information indicating that a synchronous waiting status is reached after the processor has finished its processing. A storage control element transmits the synchronous status information to all other processors. A judging element judges whether the group of processors are in synchronism based on the synchronization combination information and the transmitted status information. A processing shifting element shifts, when the group of processors are judged to be in synchronism, all the processors in the group to the next process of a program.
