A semiconductor integrated circuit of the invention comprises a plurality of cores, and an interconnecting network including adaptors connected to each of the cores and a plurality of routers connecting the adaptors to communicate therebetween. Transmission side adaptors store first delivery information, and control delivery of the request signal to be received from the first core in accordance with the first delivery information. Reception side adaptors store second delivery information, and control delivery of the request signal to be received through the interconnecting network to the second core in accordance with the second delivery information. The first delivery information and the second delivery information are hierarchically set.
