Abstract: A computer-readable storage medium stores a program for causing a processor to perform a process including: acquiring a first address that specifies a start address of a first area on the main memory where a target data to be cached is stored and range information that specifies a size of the first area on the main memory; converting the first address into a second address that specifies a start address of a second area on the local memory, the second area having a one-to-n correspondence (n=positive integer) to a part of a bit string of the first address; copying the target data stored in the first area specified by the first address and the range information onto the second area specified by the second address and the range information; and storing the second address to allow accessing the target data copied onto the local memory.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a software conversion program product having a computer readable medium including programmed instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a computer system including a host processor and one or more accelerator processors, causes the computer system to perform: analyzing input software and obtaining a compute intensity calculated by dividing the number of arithmetic processing times in a loop by the size of data accessed in the loop and a data reference area size that is a total size of areas where data is referred to; determining a processor that executes loops on the basis of obtained values and a preliminarily prepared win-loss table in which wins and losses of execution times between the host processor and the accelerator processor are defined; and converting the input software so that the determined processor executes the loops.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a receptor for receiving an event signal occurring in hardware during program execution in time series, a feature event counter for counting the number of occurrences of a feature event to determine the feature of the program, a stored event counter for counting the number of occurrences of stored event determined from the feature event with the maximum number of occurrences, and a storage for storing the count result of the number of occurrences of the stored event.

Abstract: An information processing system includes a first processor that accesses a first memory, a second processor that accesses a second memory, and a data transfer unit for executing data transfer between the first memory and the second memory. The first processor executes functions of translating an instruction out of instructions included in the program except a memory access instruction into an instruction for the second processor and translating the memory access instruction into an instruction sequence containing a call instruction of the program to transfer the access data on the first memory to the second memory via a data transfer unit.

Abstract: A preload controller for controlling a bus access device that reads out data from a main memory via a bus and transfers the readout data to a temporary memory, including a first acquiring device to acquire access hint information which represents a data access interval to the main memory, a second acquiring device to acquire system information which represents a transfer delay time in transfer of data via the bus by the bus access device, a determining device to determine a preload unit count based on the data access interval represented by the access hint information and the transfer delay time represented by the system information, and a management device to instruct the bus access device to read out data for the preload unit count from the main memory and to transfer the readout data to the temporary memory ahead of a data access of the data.
