Abstract: An information processing device includes SBs; an XBB for executing data transfer between the SBs; and an SCF for managing and controlling the SBs and the XBB. The SB includes a transmitting/receiving unit for transmitting a notification packet indicating occurrence of an error via the XBB when detecting the occurrence of the error. The SCF includes an executing unit for executing a configuration change process corresponding to an instruction when detecting the instruction related to the SB, a suspending unit for suspending acceptance of an error report from the SB in which the error occurs during execution of the configuration change process and an XBB controller for controlling the XBB to destroy the notification packet received from the SB of which configuration change process is being executed and controlling the XBB to inhibit transfer of the notification packet to the SB of which configuration change process is being executed.

Abstract: Cross bar control circuits are connected to each other by two buses, which are a broadcast bus for transmitting a broadcast packet from a system board to all system boards other than the system board and a point-to-point bus for transmitting a unicast packet from a system board to another system board. When unicast packets passing through the point-to-point bus are too many, the unicast packets are output by using the broadcast bus in addition to the point-to-point bus if the broadcast bus is not used. In this way, the unicast packets can be output quickly and efficiently, so that use efficiency of the broadcast bus and the point-to-point bus can be increased as a whole.

Abstract: The invention comprises a patient information server device which automatically accumulates together with time information: biological information detected by a bedside monitoring device of a patient or a biological-measuring device; biological information and device information detected by a blood purification device which treats a blood sample taken from the patient; and blood information detected by a circulating blood volume measuring device that detects blood information about a circulating blood sample taken from the patient. A client device simultaneously and chronologically displays or records the patient information stored in the patient information server device. Through this arrangement, it is possible to obtain on a real time basis the biological information of a human body such as a patient's body, and the device information, for example, of a blood treating device.

Abstract: A method is provided for detecting filter clogging which are able to keep track of the filter clogging with precision and in detail. At least one pressure selected from the group consisting of a pressure Pa in a blood inflow portion (32a), a pressure Pv in a blood outflow portion (32b), a pressure Pf1 in a filtrate inflow portion (32c), and a pressure Pf2 in a filtrate outflow portion (32d) is measured continuously, then a variation (pressure waveform) of the pressure is analyzed, a clogging of a filter (32) is detected using the analyzed result. Thereby a clogging of a filter is detected early. As a result, it is possible to prevent from developing of the filter clogging by controlling a dosage amount of anti-coagulant properly and changing a flow rate of blood. The variation of the pressure wave may be analyzed by subjecting the variable to Fast Fourier Transform.

Abstract: An object of invention is to display necessary information on a screen and display predicted information obtained by predicting the progression of the necessary information. In a bed-side information system, a body information monitor 11 measures arterial blood pressures of a patient 14. The body information monitor 11 measures systolic arterial blood pressures and diastolic arterial blood pressures, and calculates average values thereof. A Hematocrit monitor 12 calculates Hematocrit, change blood volume rate, and Venous Blood Oxygen Saturation. The body information monitor 11 transmits arterial blood pressure information to a desktop PC 15 and the Hematocrit monitor 12 transmits Hematocrit, change blood volume rate, and Venous Blood Oxygen Saturation to the desktop PC 15. The desktop PC 15 displays arterial blood pressure, Hematocrit, change blood volume rate, and Plasma Refilling Rate on a screen of a display using these information items.

Abstract: A multiprocessor control system which has at least one main storage unit, a plurality of main storage control units, a plurality of processing units, and a control bus. Each processing unit is connected to the main storage unit through one of the main storage control units. When each processing unit transmits a request for access to at least one main storage unit, the processing units transmit the request to the main storage control units to which each processing unit is connected, and simultaneously, to all of the other main storage control units, through the control bus. All of the main storage control units process the request from the processing unit, synchronously, and execute a busy check control or the like. Data transmitted between each processing unit and an arbitrary one of the main storage units is transmitted only through the main storage control unit to which the processing unit is connected.
