  • Patent number: 11003611
    Abstract: A bridge apparatus includes slave circuits connected to each other via a bus. Each of the slave circuits is connected to one of master apparatuses, function as a slave for the master apparatus connected thereto, and performs communication in accordance with a protocol in which the number of masters in a system is restricted. Addresses of memories are respectively set in the slave circuits, and the memories are connected to the master apparatuses to which the slave circuits are respectively connected. When a first master apparatus accesses a memory connected to a second master apparatus by specifying a first address of the memory, the bridge apparatus causes the first master apparatus and the second master apparatus to communicate via a first slave circuit, a second slave circuit in which an address corresponding to the first address is set, and the bus, based on the addresses of the memories.

  • Patent number: 10853287
    Abstract: Processing by an information processing system is speeded up. A first semiconductor integrated circuit designates a first address of a memory connected to a second semiconductor integrated circuit that is a data transmission destination, based on first memory map information in which addresses of memories respectively used by the semiconductor integrated circuits are defined, converts the first address to a second address of the memory defined in second memory map information referred to by the data transmission destination, and outputs the second address and transmission data by using a PCIe interface. A switch transfers the second address and the transmission data to the data transmission destination by using PCIe interfaces. The data transmission destination receives the second address and the transmission data by using a PCIe interface and writes the transmission data into the reception buffer region of the memory corresponding to the second address.

  • Patent number: 10410301
    Abstract: A system for planning operation of a power plant capable of a first mode driving a power generator using a turbine and a second mode not driving the power generator using the turbine over a predetermined period. A determination unit determines whether a predicted power-selling price is higher than a power generation cost; and a planning unit calculates a loss index of the first and second modes in a case where the predicted selling price is equal to the generation cost or less within the predetermined period and formulates a plan to operate the power plant in a mode having a smaller loss index. The loss index of the first mode includes a power-selling loss that is a difference between the predicted selling price and the generation cost, and the loss index of the second mode includes a loss that is caused by not driving the power generator.
