ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a multi-processor system arranged, in one embodiment, as an image and graphics processor. The processor is structured with several individual processors all having communication links to several memories. The individual processors can, on a cycle by cycle basis, be grouped in any configuration to run in synchronism (but from different instruction streams) with the other processors in that group. More than one such synchronized group can be formed concurrently. A crossbar switch serves to establish the processor memory links and the entire image processor, including the individual processors, the crossbar switch and the memories are contained on a single silicon chip.
