Patent number: 9673072Abstract: A second control device of a second substrate processing apparatus determines whether the processing-start expected time for a substrate is equal to or earlier than a processing-start time limit. If the processing-start expected time is equal to or earlier than the processing-start time limit, the second control device allows the second substrate processing apparatus to execute a first schedule and a second schedule that are initial schedules. On the other hand, if the processing-start expected time is later than the processing-start time limit, the second control device changes the initial first schedule and the initial second schedule so that the processing-start expected time becomes equal to or earlier than the processing-start time limit, and the second control device allows the second substrate processing apparatus to execute the first schedule and the second schedule that have been changed.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2014Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: SCREEN Holdings Co., Ltd.Inventors: Katsuaki Takagi, Seiichiro Sano, Yuzo Uchida, Satoshi Yamanaka

Patent number: 5109491Abstract: A memory management device which is connected in a virtual address space or a physical address space together with another device capable of becoming a bus master, is endowed with the function of detecting the bus request signal of the other device, interrupting an address translation process under execution and causing a processor to release a bus. Thus, the other device can be made the bus master without being kept waiting for a long time, and a system bug can be prevented which is attributed to such a fact that a wait time exceeds the data hold time of an input/output device connected to, for example, a direct memory access controller.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 1990Date of Patent: April 28, 1992Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Norio Nakagawa, Katsuaki Takagi

Patent number: 4939636Abstract: In a multiprocessor system having a hierachal memory device employing a virtual memory system, serial communication means which makes it possible for memory management units, which are disposed for CPUs, respectively, to communicate with one another, so that any change of common memory management information can be exchanged directly between the memory management units. As a result, it is not necessary for each CPU to inform the memory management unit of any change of the memory management information by an operating system, so that the overhead of communication between CPUs can be reduced and memory management can be made correctly without applying any load to the operating system even when any change occurs in the memory management information.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 1987Date of Patent: July 3, 1990Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Norio Nakagawa, Katsuaki Takagi, Tuneo Funabashi

Patent number: 4819211Abstract: An address information line of a microprocessor informs a memory management unit of such address information that a current address is identical to an address before one bus-cycle or two bus-cycles or is a new address. Since the address information line has a light load, the address information is transmitted at high speed. In addition, if the current address is identical to the address before one or several bus-cycles, address conversion within the memory management unit can be quickened in such a way that these addresses are temporarily stored in the memory management unit, whereupon the corresponding address is read out.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 1987Date of Patent: April 4, 1989Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventor: Katsuaki Takagi
