  • Patent number: 11487553
    Abstract: A parallel processing apparatus includes: a first node including a storage unit that stores a program, the first node being activated when the program loaded from the storage unit is executed; a second node activated when the program loaded from the storage unit of the first node is executed; and a control unit configured to execute a setting process for setting a state where the program may be loaded to each of the first node and the second node, wherein the control unit starts the setting process on the second node after a predetermined time elapses since start of the setting process on the first node, and wherein the predetermined time is a time at which an activation completion timing of the first node is aligned with a completion timing of the setting process on the second node.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10416888
    Abstract: A parallel processing device includes a management unit, a plurality of nodes, and a controller that controls each of the plurality of nodes in accordance with a first command transmitted from the management unit. The controller includes a command storage that stores a second command generated a previous time, a command type identification unit that identifies a command type of the first command transmitted from the management unit, and a command generator that generates a third command by using the second command according to the command type.

  • Patent number: 8589636
    Abstract: A cache memory device includes: a data memory storing data written by an arithmetic processing unit; a connecting unit connecting an input path from the arithmetic processing unit to the data memory and an output path from the data memory to a main storage unit; a selecting unit provided on the output path to select data from the data memory or data from the arithmetic processing unit via the connecting unit, and to transfer the selected data to the output path; and a control unit controlling the selecting unit such that the data from the data memory is transferred to the output path when the data is written from the data memory to the main storage unit, and such that the data is transferred to the output path via the connecting unit when the data is written from the arithmetic processing unit to the main storage unit.
