A C element controls a pipeline register and successively transfers data packets. When a dead-lock state occurs, a data packet in the pipeline register is erased by a master reset signal, a host transfer flag operating circuit overwrites a data packet in the pipeline register so that it has a host transfer flag at the “H” level, and thereafter, when the host transfer flag is detected in the subsequent stage, the data packet is transferred to the host.

A data packet, having a flag for determination of its processing content, a tag field and a data field, is sequentially transferred between pipeline registers according to pulses from C elements. A determination is made as to whether the tag field of the data packet includes information identical to that pre-stored in a tag field of a register within a processing content determination unit. Based on the determination result, the data packet is processed according to the information stored in a processing content determination field of the register.

A data driven type processing device has an error diffusion computing unit built therein. An error holding register is provided within the error diffusion computing unit, and is used to successively store and update a value of error information of a pixel that is to be diffused to a neighboring pixel being processed continuously. An error data memory is provided outside the computing unit, and is used to store and update a value of the error information that is to be diffused to another neighboring pixel being processed discontinuously. The error information and the values to be diffused are stored in a packet, and the packet is circulated for operation.

A data-driven type information processing apparatus includes at least a paired data generating unit, a memory control unit, and data memory. The memory control unit includes a pipeline register receiving a data packet output from the paired data generating unit, including a page address, a set value for setting an effective bit and data, and an address generating unit for generating an address for accessing the data memory by retrieving effective data from the data included in the data packet based on the set value and attaching the page address included in the data packet to the retrieved effective data.

When an instruction decoder decodes an instruction code included in packet data, a copy flag and copy number information are provided to a self-synchronous transfer control circuit. In the self-synchronous transfer control circuit, when a data transfer enabling signal is applied from a C element in a subsequent stage, a node number manipulation circuit manipulates a node number to make copies such that packets can be distinguished from each other, and then data is transferred from a pipeline register to a pipeline register in a subsequent stage.

An input port receives input data X, generates input packets by adding generation numbers and node numbers indicative of prescribed destinations, in the order of reception, and in addition, generates a data packet from a separately input clock signal. The input data packet is written to an image memory using the generation number in the packet as an address signal, or read from the image memory using the generation number in the data packet as an address signal. Operation is performed in accordance with the input data packet or the data packet read from the image memory by a memory interface, and the processed data packet is output to the outside of a data driven engine, a memory interface or a data driven type processor.

In a transmissive liquid crystal display device including a liquid crystal panel and a backlight, the liquid crystal panel has pixels each divided into four subpixels, namely red (R), green (G), blue (B), and white (W) subpixels. Further, the backlight is a white backlight whose light emission luminance is controllable. Furthermore, a color-saturation conversion section performs a color-saturation reduction process on a first input RGB input signal serving as an original input signal, and then a gamma-correction section performs a gamma-correction process on the first RGB input signal. An output signal generation section calculates transmittances and a backlight value in accordance with gamma-corrected RGB input signal obtained after the gamma-correction process has been performed by the gamma-correction section.

Each of image data sorted so as to correspond to divided areas respectively is stored in an in-area image memory. A maximum luminance extracting section extracts the maximum luminance value therefrom and records it onto the maximum luminance storage section. In accordance with the maximum luminance value that is thus stored in the maximum luminance storage section and that each of the areas has, a BL candidate value calculating section and a BL luminance difference adjusting section determine an emitted-light luminance in a target area such that a difference between the backlight luminance in the target area and the backlight luminance in its adjacent area is not more than a tolerance value.

In order to perform functional packet copying to read a large amount of data of an unspecified length from a memory at high speed and to prevent the packet copying operation from affecting other packet flow, a self-synchronous transfer control circuit having a function of controlling transfer operation is used, by which the number of packet copies output from a data holding register is managed by a counter, and the number of copies represented by the copy request packet and the counter count value are compared by a comparator, to determine completion of the packet copying operation.

A branching control unit includes a logic gate and a NAND circuit that can receive transfer permission for each branching designation. The branching control unit further includes a transfer request unit receiving respective outputs of the logic gate and NAND circuit. The transfer request unit sends a data transfer request to a branching designation when the logic gate or NAND circuit is rendered active. Since transfer permission can be received for each branching designation to send a transfer request, a data waiting state depending upon the data holding state of another branching destination will no longer occur. Thus, a data driven type information processing apparatus and method of transferring a data packet at higher speed in a data transmission path can be provided.
