Abstract: An arithmetic device includes a first register that stores input data as values of a plurality of input neurons, a plurality of ports, and a plurality of processing element groups that correspond to the plurality of ports, respectively, and can access the first register through the respective corresponding ports. Each processing element group includes a plurality of processing elements. Each processing element is associated with at least one of a plurality of output neurons and performs a multiply-and-accumulate computation in which a value of at least one input neuron connected to a corresponding output neuron is multiplied by a weight coefficient and results of multiplication are accumulated.

Abstract: The information processing apparatus is provided with a plurality of arithmetic devices, a memory unit shared by the plurality of arithmetic devices, and a cache device. The cache device divides the memory space of the memory unit into a plurality of regions, and includes a plurality of caches in the same hierarchy, each of which is associated with a respective one of the plurality of regions. Each cache includes a cache core configured to exclusively store data from a respective one of the plurality of regions.

Abstract: A processor synthesis device inserts a stop circuit into a circuit configuration, which is defined by processor model information and includes a plurality of operators, based on instruction set information that defines an instruction set including a plurality of instructions, the stop circuit stopping an operator not used in an instruction to be executed among the plurality of operators when each of the plurality of instructions is executed. The processor synthesis device generates processor synthesis information which is an RTL description defining a circuit configuration into which the stop circuit is inserted.
