  • Patent number: 9527818
    Abstract: Provided are a method for producing a sulfonyl amidine compound, which has an excellent gonadotropin releasing hormone receptor antagonism and is useful as a therapeutic agent for gonadotropin-dependent diseases (for example, prostate cancer, breast cancer, endometriosis, uterine fibroid, prostatic hyperplasia, or the like) or a salt thereof, and a synthesis intermediate useful in the production method. The production method of the present invention controls formation of a by-product which is hardly removed unless column purification is conducted and racemization of a target compound, thereby obtaining the target compound with a high purity, and therefore, the production method is suitable for industrial production.

  • Patent number: 6125411
    Abstract: In an electronic computer system in which a plurality of OSs are operated, a plurality of input-output arrangement information defined in response to each of a plurality of OSs and a correspondence table indicative of a correspondence relationship between each OS and each input-output arrangement information are created previously and stored in a control information storage means. When an input-output request is issued from an arbitrary OS, the central processing unit identifies the corresponding OS, and recognizes input-output arrangement information corresponding to the identified OS based on the correspondence table. Then, the central processing unit executes an input-output processing based on the recognized input-output arrangement information.

  • Patent number: 5996026
    Abstract: A connection method of a plurality of input/output channels between a plurality of sub-channels of an information processing system having a virtual machine running on a physical machine under control of a hypervisor and a plurality of devices. The method includes issuing from the hypervisor a command for setting configuration information defining a plurality of configuration structures between the sub-channels set for the respective virtual machines and the devices in a storage device and acquiring configuration information containing the sub-channel corresponding to a designated device from the configuration information corresponding to one of the virtual machines based on the device designation contained in the input/output command from the one virtual machine. The virtual machines are enabled after the issuance of the set command and before the issuance of the input/output command.

  • Patent number: 4922410
    Abstract: In an input/output process device for controlling data transfer between a central processing unit and an input/output device through a channel by use of any of a plurality of input/output control devices connected to the input/output device, a memory unit is disposed so as to store information representing the address of the input/output control device in association with an identification number of the channels connected to the input/output control device. When selecting the channel for data transfer, the input/output process device reads out the information representing the address of the input/output control device from the memory unit and generates the address for the input/output control device on the basis of the information read out.
