In order to allow an arbitrary combination of image processing function
blocks and an arbitrary processing order to be executed with a single
command and avoid calculation loads on a host CPU even when image
processes in varying output image sizes are combined, the image signal
processing apparatus of the present invention includes an individual
processing sub program that operates image processes in page units or
with an arbitrarily specified number of lines for each image processing
function block and an individual processing parameter table that
determines the individual processing contents and also provides a
composite processing parameter table including image processing order
information and image size related information and when an individual
image processing command is issued, the image signal processing apparatus
sets an individual processing parameter table in an image processing
function block and executes the individual processing sub program.
