Abstract: In a data processing device, a fixed-point position control unit determines, as first control. The fixed-point position control unit causes a detection calculation unit to perform calculation processing on processing target data at a processing point in time. The saturation rate control unit instructs, as second control to be repeated by the fixed-point position control unit, the fixed-point position control unit to move at least the fixed-point position as control to increase a lower limit saturation rate proportional to a magnitude of a counted lower limit counter value with respect to a result of the first control. The fixed-point position control unit performs, as the second control, a predetermined determination on the basis of the instruction from the saturation rate control unit and the metadata, determines the fixed-point position moved for each layer, and causes calculation processing to be performed.

Abstract: An intake passage of an engine includes a throttle valve, a supercharger, and a bypass passage connecting an upstream side with a downstream side of the supercharger and opening when the supercharger is not acting. When the supercharger is not acting, the intake passage generates forward flows in which intake air flows from the throttle valve toward the supercharger and bypass-directed flows in which the intake air is reversed due to blockage of forward movement by the supercharger and flows from the supercharger side toward a connection port, of the bypass passage, opening in the intake passage. An evaporated fuel introduction opening leading evaporated fuel produced in a fuel tank to the intake passage opens in a wall surface, on which the bypass-directed flow is generated, in the intake passage.
