  • Patent number: 5321387
    Abstract: An associative storage comprises two data transmission paths each of which includes a self-running shift register formed in loop fashion. In the respective data transmission paths, data packets each having identification data are transmitted to respective stages of the shift register. The identification data are extracted from the data packets transmitted on the shift registers and compared with each other in a comparing circuit. If and when the identification data of two data packets respectively transmitted on the respective transmission paths are coincident, those two data packets are determined as the data packets to be paired. The data packet pair is read from the data transmission paths.

  • Patent number: 4918644
    Abstract: A data processing apparatus includes two data transmission paths formed likewise in a loop fashion. These data transmission paths include a plurality of latch registers connected in a cascade fashion respectively and are constituted as a so-called self-running type shift register wherein each data word constituting a data packet is shifted in sequence provided that a pre-stage register is vacant. Data packets are transmitted in the directions reverse to each other on the two loop-shaped data transmission paths an identification data included in each data packet being transmitted is detected in a section defined as a data packet pair detecting section. The detected identification data are compared in a comparing circuit and, one new data packet is produced from the two data packets in a manner that a data packet is joined from one data transmission path to the other data transmission path.

  • Patent number: 4907187
    Abstract: A data processing apparatus includes a self-running type shift register and this shift register includes a plurality of latch registers arranged in a cascade fashion. The latch register latches a data packet on a word basis. In each latch register, a coincidence element is disposed in association therewith and these coincidence elements allow transfer of data from a post-stage latch register provided that a pre-stage latch register is vacant. A data processing element is installed between two latch registers and the data processing element processes operand data from either or both of the two latch register in response to the kind of processing shown by an operation code comprised in the preceding word. The result of processing is transferred to the pre-stage latch register when the pre-stage latch register is placed in the vacant state under control of the coincidence element.
