Claim:
1. A large vocabulary speech recognition system, comprised of: a) a digital computer consisting of an input unit, a divider unit, a plurality of binary speech recognition processor units, a presenter unit and an assembler unit, b) a stream of audio words or phrases in a time order presented to the input unit, c) the divider unit, adapted to divide the stream of audio words or phrases into individual audio sub-events, the content of each sub-event consisting of a word or a phrase, d) the plurality of binary speech recognition processor units, each said processor unit being adapted to accept an individual audio sub-event and output a single text representing the content of the individual audio sub-event, if and only if the processor recognizes that the content of the individual audio sub-event accepted is content specifically assigned to that processor, and if the content of the individual audio sub-event accepted is not content specifically assigned to that processor, the processor does not output a text, e) the presenter unit adapted to take the content of each individual audio sub-event from the divider unit, and present it simultaneously to each of the plurality of binary speech recognition processor units for input and for processing by that binary speech recognition processor unit to which the individual audio sub-event is assigned f) the assembler unit adapted to gather text which is output by the binary speech recognition processor units and assemble that text into a stream of text having the same time order as the stream of audio words or phrases.
