摘要:
Processed results are received when processors make compatible computations on data of a common object. A computation command signal is generated and fed to the processors in response to a start signal from any one of the processors so that the processors can make computations with different operation timings. Then, the results of the computations made by the processors are compared with each other. Thus, apparatus capable of small size, high performance and safety at the same time can be achieved by the above construction using the processors.

An input/output control apparatus including: a unit that controls input/output of data relating to a computation of a plurality of processors in response to an access request from a second input/output unit and an access request from a first input/output unit which requires higher reliability than said second input/output unit, and orders at least one of a plurality of processors to perform a computation relating to the access request from said first input/output unit away from the computation relating to the access request from said second input/output unit in case of that said first input/output unit issued an access request, so that a same computation is made by said plurality of processors; a unit that compares the results of said computations relative to the access request from said first input/output unit provided from said plurality of processors; and a unit that allows the data associated with said computations of said processors to be output on the basis of said compared results.
摘要:
The present invention provides a duplexed operation processor control system that includes operation processors, an I/O device, and at least one communication path that couples the operation processors to the I/O device, and at least one communication path that couples the operation processors with each other. The duplexed operation processor control system switches over either of the operation processors to be a primary operation processor that executes a control operation for a control target, and the other to be a secondary operation processor that is in a stand-by state, and the secondary operation processor snoops control data synchronously when the primary operation processor acquires the control data from the control target.

摘要:
A self-diagnosis system of a processor capable of realizing a sufficiently high processing ability for control tasks is provided without deteriorating reliability of safety controls even in complex diagnostic techniques. The self-diagnosis system is equipped with a diagnostic target area allocator for allocating a non-active area within a memory as a diagnosis-ready area, which is not used in a control task under execution by a main processor in an independent manner from the main processor; and a diagnostic executor for executing a diagnosis based upon a predetermined sequence in an independent manner from the main processor. In the self-diagnosis system, a diagnostic target area segmented from the diagnosis-ready area is selected, and a diagnosis of the selected diagnostic target area is carried out in each of diagnostic cycles by the diagnostic executor.
