Abstract: We describe the architecture of the special purpose processor built to realize in hardware cluster Wolff algorithm, which is not hampered by a critical slowing down. The processor simulates two-dimensional Ising-like spin systems. With minor changes the same very effective architecture, which can be defined as a Memory Machine, can be used to study phase transitions in a wide range of models in two or three dimensions.
