Abstract :
This paper describes the design of the processing element (PE) of I IV, a parallel processing computer consisting of 256 PE´s, each with an associated 2048 word memory. Each PE-memory combination with its data-dependent controls is a computer in itself, devoid of those controls common to all PE-memory combinations, such as instruction decoding, instruction look-ahead, etc.
