Abstract: A file management apparatus includes a file storage portion and a manipulation portion. The file storage portion stores a plurality of files therein. Each file includes one or more data structures. Each data structure includes one or more elements. The file storage portion further identifies each file with a file identifier and identifies each data structure within the file with an internal identifier and with the number of data structures contained in the file. The position of each data element and the number of data elements within a data structure are also identified. The manipulation portion manipulates the structure of the data stored in the file storage portion by employing the file identifier, the data structure identifier, and element position.

Abstract: Intercommunication of data between adjacent element processors (3) is performed through a memory unit (6) which is independently accessible to the respective element processors (3) without interfere with the operations of the other element processors (3). Thus, memory access and data transfer can be achieved without interfere with the operations of individual element processor (3). Furthermore, it becomes possible to solve differential equations by asynchronous communication system.

Abstract: A program developing system includes a plurality of graphic editors representing specification definition information a user inputs in representation formats different from each other and a mutual conversion unit for converting specification definition which the user described with a graphic editor into a representation format of another graphic editor. The mutual conversion unit activates another graphic editor to allow input of specification definition by the converted representation format. The graphic editors can hierarchically represent specifications and allows specification description at an arbitrary level.

Abstract: A horizontal synchronizing signal is counted by a binary counter. A first switch is switched in response to the count value, whereby signal data is classified. A sampling clock signal is counted by a binary counter. An output of the first switch is switched by second and third switches in response to the count value, whereby the data input rate of signal data is reduced. Each classified signal is subjected to filtering by a two-dimensional FIR digital filter.

Abstract: A signal input in a raster scan format is entered into one-dimensional digital filters. An output of the one-dimensional digital filter is multiplied in a multiplier. Outputs of one-dimensional digital filters are provided to delay circuits to generate a time delay in a direction perpendicular to the raster scan direction. The output of the multiplier and the outputs of the delay circuits are added by adders. A one-dimensional digital filter of the vertical direction is decomposed in a manner more simple than in the horizontal direction to reduce delay time between input and output.
