    Abstract: An aspect of the present invention for solving the above problem is a system including a first computer, a control module controlled by the first computer, and a second computer configured to be associated with the control module. The second computer includes a plurality of units, and each of the plurality of units includes a first memory that stores a value indicating a state of a node, a second memory that stores a coefficient, and an arithmetic circuit. The arithmetic circuit performs an arithmetic process of determining a value indicating a state of a node of its own unit, based on a value indicating a state of a node of a different unit and the coefficient of its own unit, and storing the determined value in the first memory. The control module supplies a control signal for controlling the arithmetic process to the second computer.

    Abstract: Provided is an optimization method including executing a ground state search for an interaction model by a ground state search in a surrogate interaction model including D (D is a natural number of three or more) variable groups each having N continuous variables by using an information processing apparatus, the interaction model having a third-order or higher-order energy function including N (N is a natural number) continuous variables and discrete variables. The ground state search is executed based on simulated annealing. An interaction relation of the surrogate interaction model has a complete D-part graph structure. A coupling is set between i-th variable pairs in the respective variable groups of the surrogate interaction model. The information processing apparatus is operated to simultaneously update all variables of one variable group from among the D variable groups when performing a state transition in the surrogate interaction model.
