  • Publication number: 20220130179
    Abstract: An interference margin between a stator and a rotor is measured after a rotary electric machine is manufactured, and the measured value is stored in a memory of a life predicting device as an allowable limit value. The life predicting device calculates a wear amount of a bearing portion of the rotary electric machine from an operation state amount of the rotary electric machine, and determines whether or not the rotary electric machine reaches an end of a life and maintenance is needed based on the calculated value and the allowable limit value stored in the memory.

  • Patent number: 9483244
    Abstract: A computer converts a source program into intermediate code. The computer detects, based on profile information related to a memory access for accessing target data stored in a memory, a memory access that fits an access pattern corresponding to an operating condition of a hardware prefetch function for the target data. The target data is data for which a prefetch instruction is to be inserted in advance. The prefetch instruction is an instruction for transferring data stored in the memory to a cache memory. The computer computes an evaluation value for the target data based on a length of successive memory accesses that fit the access pattern, and determines, based on the evaluation value, whether to suppress insertion of a prefetch instruction for the target data. The computer updates the intermediate code based on a result of the determination, and converts the updated intermediate code into a machine language program.
