Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a processor, non-volatile memory devices having first modules running in memory mode and second modules running in storage mode, and a memory controller. In response to a request to load data stored in a third module running in storage mode, into a space that is mapped by the memory controller, the processor changes the mode of the third module to memory mode and the memory controller creates a mapping for the data stored in the third module. In response to a request to copy data loaded into a space that is mapped by the memory controller to a module running in storage mode, the processor changes the mode of a third module, which is storing a portion of the data and running in memory mode, to storage mode.

Abstract: A coil terminal has a winding section comprising an end of coiled wire wound therearound. The winding section is bent relative to a remaining section of the coil terminal. The winding section has a proximal wire engagement portion and a distal wire engagement portion spaced away from each other in a longitudinal direction of the winding section, and an intermediate region disposed between the proximal wire engagement portion and the distal wire engagement portion. The wire end is extended in the intermediate region without being wound around the intermediate region.

Abstract: In a computer system according to the background art, when a request to halt a virtual processor was detected, the virtual processor was blocked. In the blocking method, latency of virtual halt exit of the virtual processor was so long that a problem of performance was caused. A virtual machine monitor selects either of a busy wait method for making repeatedly examination until the virtual halt state exits while the virtual processor stays on the physical processor and a blocking method for stopping execution of the virtual processor and scheduling other virtual processors on the physical processor while yielding the operating physical processor and checking off scheduling of the virtual processor to the physical processor, based on a virtual processor halt duration predicted value of the virtual processor which is an average value of latest N virtual processor halt durations of the virtual processor.

Abstract: The method of calculating the processor utilization for each of logical processors in a computer, including the steps of: dividing the computation interval in which the processor utilization by each logical processor is to be calculated into a single task mode (ST) execution interval and a multitask mode (MT) execution interval, appropriately calculating them based on the before-and-after relation between two times; and adding the MT execution interval multiplied by a predetermined MT mode processor resource assignment ratio to the ST mode execution interval to obtain the processor utilization for the calculation-targeted logical processor in the computation interval.

Abstract: A hypervisor calculates the total number of processor cycles (the number of processor cycles of one or more physical processors) in a first length of time based on the sum of the operating frequencies of the respective physical processors and the first length of time for each first length of time (for example, a scheduling initialization cycle T1, which will be explained further below). The hypervisor calculates for each virtual computer the number of possessing cycles, which is a value obtained by the total number of processor cycles being distributed in proportion to the service ratios of multiple virtual computers. In virtual processor scheduling, the hypervisor runs a virtual processor inside a virtual computer on any physical processor based on the number of hold cycles of each virtual computer.
