A new system based on the Blitzen parallel processing architecture, for application to second level triggering in high energy colliders, is described. The simulated performance of this system in real-time cluster finding is presented. The efficiency has been evaluated on a sample of CDF calorimeter data by comparison with off-line analysis. The system has also been tested in track finding with the TRD algorithm from the CERN/EAST collaboration.
