Hideaki Shiotani has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 6598222
    Abstract: An apparatus for supporting parallelization according to the invention is characterized by comprising a serialization unit for converting a first concurrent program having a concurrent structure into a sequential program capable of being sequentially executed, a debugging unit for debugging the sequential program and forming debugging information, and a concurrent program programming unit for performing parallelization of the debugged sequential program on the basis of the debugging information to convert the sequential program into a second concurrent program. With above configuration, the debugging unit includes a unit for introducing information associated with concurrency to the sequential program.

  • Patent number: 6330603
    Abstract: With an index that represents the content of a message, a communication band is assigned. At this point, communication bands are managed as fixed bands and variable bands. An index is used to secure a fixed band when the transmission a data flow corresponding to a communication request is started. In addition, an index is used to coordinate variable bands. Thus, priority levels of communication requests are objectively designated corresponding to the contents of communication requests and features of mediums. In the case that a fixed band and a variable band are secured, when a function for scheduling and reserving communication resources for communication requests is accomplished, priority levels are objectively designated with an index.
