Abstract: A parallel access system including: a group of processing entities that comprises N processing entities; wherein N is a positive integer that exceeds one; a group of memory banks that stores K information elements; wherein the group of memory banks comprises N pairs of single access memory banks; each pair of memory banks comprises an even memory bank and an odd memory bank; wherein each pair of memory banks stores sub-set of K/N information elements; wherein an even memory bank of each pair of memory banks stores even address information elements of a certain sub-set of K/N information elements and an odd memory bank of each pair of memory banks stores odd address information elements of the certain sub-set of K/N information elements; wherein K/N is an even positive integer; and a non-blocking interconnect, coupled to the group of processing entities and to the group of memory banks; wherein during each fetch cycle each processing entity of the group of processing entities fetches a first information elemen

Abstract: A device and a method, the device has transaction scheduling capabilities, and includes: (i) a memory unit adapted to output data at a first data rate, (ii) a data transaction initiator adapted to receive data at a second data rate that is lower than the first data rate; (iii) a deep pipelined crossbar characterized by a latency; and (iv) a data rate converter connected between the deep pipelined crossbar and the data transaction initiator; wherein the data rate converter is adapted to schedule a transaction of data unit from the memory unit in response to the latency of the deep pipelined crossbar, the first data rate, the second data rate, and size of an available storage space, within the data rate converter allocated for storing data from the memory unit.
