ABSTRACT:
In a data processing system formed by one or more kinds of hardware modules each connected through a system bus, and additional hardware modules being added by connecting a frame containing one or more hardware modules to be added in accordance with request of a user, each of the processor modules includes: a detection unit for detecting a request of addition of the frame containing the hardware modules to be added; a specifying unit operatively connected to the detection unit for specifying a structure of hardware modules to be added when detecting the request; an addition unit operatively connected to the specifying unit for preparing new control tables for the hardware modules to be added based on the structure information in the specifying unit, and dynamically adding the new control tables to the present control tables which are already provided for the present hardware modules; and an initializing unit operatively connected to the specifying unit for initializing the hardware modules to be added.
