Abstract: To have a problem of occurrence of the same failure in failure detection of a microcontroller. A microcontroller has a CPU and a data access control circuit. The data access control circuit performs two types of accesses: an individual access in which a data access of the CPU is performed for each thread, and a shared access in which a data access of the CPU is performed by executing two threads. The data access control circuit detects a failure of the CPU by making a comparison between the command and the address, respectively, in the shared access generated by executing the two threads.

Abstract: A processing unit is connected to another processing unit through a system bus composed of serial signal communication line and synchronization signal communication line to be able to communicate therewith. When an operation unit detects abnormal state in the processing unit, the operation unit supplies notification of detection of the abnormal state to synchronization unit. The synchronization unit transmits the received detection notification of abnormal state to the other processing unit through the synchronization signal communication line. Conversion unit receives parallel communication data from the operation unit through important signal line instead of general signal line and converts the received parallel signal into serial signal to be transmitted to the other processing unit through the serial signal communication line, thereby soundness among processing units connected to the system bus is ensured when the system bus is configured to attain serial communication.

Abstract: In the construction of a wireless network in a building, structure conditions such as the floor plan of the building and the shape of the floor, material conditions such as materials for structures, and the like have a great effect on radio wave propagation characteristics. This causes a problem that unless these pieces of information are taken into consideration, an accurate layout design of wireless base stations cannot be made. In the construction of a new wireless network in a building, a wireless network similar to structure conditions of a newly constructed building is extracted from structure conditions of past buildings in which a wireless network is constructed. The layout positions of wireless base stations used in the extracted wireless network are regarded as the layout positions of wireless base stations in the new wireless network.

Abstract: A multistage relay communication system 100 includes a trunk network 1 and branch networks 2 (2a, 2b), each of which includes one or more communication apparatuses 4. The communication apparatus 4 can switch between a trunk mode to operate in the trunk network 1 and a branch mode to operate in the branch network 2.

Meanwhile, in the branch network 2, when a communication failure occurs, the communication apparatus 4 autonomously searches for a communication path and constructs a path table, in order to at least secure a data arrival rate even if real-timeness is impaired within an allowable range.

Abstract: When executing sequential processing such as a ladder logic, converting a program formed of an instruction set of another processor to a program executable by an own processor in software and then conducting processing lowers the real time property. In a control system, a storage unit stores a program for the own processor and a program for another processor. A processor reads data from the storage unit, executes processing described as a program, and gives an instruction to change over a method for acquiring data from the storage unit, to a conversion instruction unit according to data contents. A changeover unit is connected to the storage unit directly or via the conversion unit to change over the data acquiring method according to an instruction from the conversion instruction unit. The conversion unit converts data read from the storage unit to data executable by the processor, according to a conversion scheme.
