ABSTRACT:
In processor arrays for image processors it is useful to be able to determine which is the "top left" array element having a value above or below a threshold. In the present invention an array of processors includes a number of priority encoder circuits connected to the processors to give the address of the top left array element which has a predetermined significance. Decoder circuits are provided to allow particular processors to be addressed, and methods of counting the number of array elements having a predetermined significance, and of reading data to and from the processors, are also described.
