Data Processing Device and Method
First Claim
1. A data processing device comprising a multidimensional array of coarse grained logic elements (PAEs) processing data and operating at a first clock rate and communicating with one another and/or other elements via busses and/or communication lines operated at a second clock rate, wherein the first clock rate is higher than the second and wherein the coarse grained logic elements comprise storage means for storing data needed to be processed.
