Abstract: A translation device is configured to acquire utterance spoken by a speaker in a first language and translate contents of the utterance into a second language for information presentation, and includes an input unit, a controller, a notification unit, and a storage. The input unit acquires the utterance in the first language and generates voice data from the utterance. The controller acquires a first evaluation value. The notification unit presents the speaker with information on utterance reinput request. The notification unit presents first information on utterance reinput request when the first evaluation value is less than or equal to a first predetermined value. The controller generates new voice recognition data with reference to the past voice recognition data and voice recognition data of reinput utterance, when the voice recognition data of the reinput utterance has an evaluation value less than or equal to a predetermined value.

Abstract: A translation device includes an input unit configured to receive an input sentence in an original language, a controller configured to generate a first translation sentence obtained by translation of the input sentence into a first language, and a display. The controller generates a second translation sentence obtained by translation of the input sentence into a second language different from the first language, a first reverse translation sentence obtained by reverse translation of the first translation sentence into the original language, and a second reverse translation sentence obtained by reverse translation of the second translation sentence into the original language.

Abstract: A translation device includes: an operation input unit; a voice input unit; a translation information obtaining unit; an information output unit; an execution unit; and a controller. A user's operation is input to the operation input unit. A voice is input to the voice input unit. The translation information obtaining unit obtains a translation result of the voice having been input to the voice input unit. An information output unit outputs the translation result. The controller causes the execution unit to perform, in synchronization with the outputting of the translation result by the information output unit, a processing based on an operation content of the user's operation having been input to the operation input unit while the voice corresponding to the translation result was being input.

Abstract: A machine translation method includes obtaining pre-translation text information generated by converting first speech data indicating an input speech sound uttered in a first language into text information, determining whether the pre-translation text information obtained in the obtaining includes first particular text information stored in a storage, and outputting, if it is determined in the determining that the pre-translation text information includes the first particular text information, at least either second particular text information or second speech data regarding the second particular text information associated with the first particular text information in the storage.

Abstract: A command processing apparatus that processes a plurality of commands which are issued independently from a first master and a second master is provided. The command processing apparatus sequentially issues commands to a storage apparatus including a plurality of banks. The first master issues a first command and a second command in order to the command processing apparatus, with the first command being a command to request access to a first bank and the second command being a command to request access to a second bank different from the first bank. When the second master issues a third command to the command processing apparatus during an interval between issuance of the first command and the second command, the command processing apparatus issues the second command to the storage apparatus consecutively after the first command by prioritizing the second command over the third command.

Abstract: A command processing apparatus and method are provided for optimally processing commands issued asynchronously from a plurality of masters to a storage apparatus including a plurality of banks, where each master issues commands for a bank 0 and a bank 1 alternately. The command processing apparatus includes buffer units that obtain commands issued from the plurality of masters, an arbitration unit that arbitrates the obtained commands, and an issuance unit that issues commands to the storage apparatus according to the arbitration. The arbitration unit reads the commands of the plurality of masters obtained in the buffer units, and selects one command as a result of arbitration. The arbitration unit waits until a next command of a master relating to the selected command becomes readable, and reads the next command. The issuance unit consecutively issues the selected command and the read command to the storage apparatus.

Abstract: A processing device processes data with use of one or more data blocks shared with a plurality of external processing devices. The device includes a processor, and a shared data storage unit that stores, respectively in one or more storage areas thereof, one or more data blocks to be shared with one or more external processing devices. An output unit outputs, when the processor makes an access request to write data in a part of one of the data blocks, a block identifier identifying the one of the data blocks, and the data pertaining to the access request. An input unit judges whether to share external data outputted from one of the external processing devices, based on a block identifier outputted from the one of the external processing devices, and only when judging affirmatively, causes the shared data storage unit to store the external data.

Abstract: A memory controller (101) according to this invention includes: a command generation unit (102) which generates access commands each including a physical address, based on an access request including a logical address indicating a rectangular area in image data; and a command issuance unit (105) which issues, to a memory (0), the access commands generated by the command generation unit (102). The command generation unit (102) includes a group determination unit (104) which determines a group to which a bank including data to be accessed belongs, based on the physical address corresponding to the access request. The command generation unit (102) generates a pair of a first and a second access commands which share a prefetch buffer between two banks belonging to different groups, when data to be accessed is continuous across two banks belonging to different groups.

Abstract: In a device, in which a master that requires access at a predetermined rate and a processor that requires responsiveness to an access request access a shared memory, responsiveness to the access request of the processor is improved while the access of the master at the predetermined rate is guaranteed, compared to conventional technologies. When the master has a resource available for accessing the shared memory, the master accesses the shared memory at the predetermined rate or above. When the access is executed at the predetermined rate or above, the processor accesses the shared memory by using a resource that was originally allocated to the master.

One or more of the masters access an M×N rectangular area where M and N are integers, and the command processing unit (11) converts access addresses so that a column address of data at the (K+m)th column, where K and m are integers and m?M, of an Lth line, and a column address of data at a Kth column of an (L+n)th line, where L and n are integers and n?N, become successive.

Abstract: An arbitration device arbitrates among master devices such that each master device is allowed to access a shared memory at a predetermined bandwidth, and the arbitration device permits an access request in a first period that a designer has set as desired if the access request has been made by a specific master device beyond a bandwidth that has been allocated in advance. The arbitration device masks an access request from the specific master device in a second period that follows the first period.
