Abstract
Method and apparatus for time-shared processing of a sequence of principal data words having a constant period and at least one secondary word of a second sequence of secondary data words such that there is continuous processing of the secondary data word among said principal data words is formed. A principal data word becomes available for processing at each constant period, and the processing time of such a principal data word is less than that period. After a predetermined number of principal data words first becomes available for processing, the processor begins processing each of the available principal data words such that the next principal data word of the sequence begins processing immediately after processing of the previous principal data word of the sequence is complete. At a certain time after processing begins, an instance is reached where the processor has completed processing of all of the principal data words available for processing and the next principal data word of the sequence has not yet become available for processing. At that instance, at least one of the secondary data words of the second sequence is processed by the processor. Thereafter, processing of the principal data words continues.
