Abstract:
An information processing device is provided that improves the responsiveness of a storage system and a storage device that is accessed via a network. This information processing device includes: a means that calculates an address identifying an area, on the basis of an access identifier specifying data to be accessed, said area being in a storage device that stores a first data corresponding to the access identifier; and a means that obtains the first data included in second data being data for the area and read on the basis of the calculated address, on the basis of management information included in the second data, and executes a first data operation on the second data.
Abstract:
Provided is a path calculation device including a calculation unit for performing assigned processing in parallel using a plurality of threads, and a control unit for controlling the calculation unit. The control unit divides nodes that are included in a graph which is object of path calculation, into groups in accordance with distances from a start node. And The control unit causes the calculation unit to perform path calculations between the start node and nodes belonging to a group of nodes to which distances from the start node are relatively short and thereafter to perform path calculations between the start node and nodes belonging to a group of nodes to which distances from the start node are relatively long.
Abstract:
Provided are a connection management mechanism and a connection management method with which computer bus connections can be managed such that failures and freezes do not occur in a computer system when delays and packet losses occur. A connection management unit, which is used in computer bus communication in which packets are transmitted between a request source and a request destination, has a dummy return packet generation/transmission function wherein a dummy return packet is generated and is transmitted to the request source when a delay or loss occurs in a return packet transmitted from the request destination, and/or a filter function wherein, after transmission of the dummy return packet, a legitimate return packet arriving from the request destination is discarded.
Abstract:
Provided is an accelerator control apparatus including: an accelerator that is configured to store at least one segment data item of a plurality of segment data items obtained by dividing data, and a boundary data item that is data item being included in a segment data item adjacent to the at least one segment data item; and data management unit to determine whether a width of data which is included in the boundary data item and is consistent with the segment data item adjacent to the at least one segment data item, is equal to or larger than a reference width representing a width of data referred to in processing executed by the accelerator.
Abstract:
Provided is contribution for improving response performance. For that, a storage system includes a control device and a memory device that is connected to the control device via an interconnected network, wherein the memory device includes a data memory unit that stores data and a comparison write unit that performs a comparison write process of comparing first data specified by the control device with second data stored into a predetermined area in the data memory means and determining whether to update data in the predetermined area depending on a result of the comparison, and wherein the control device includes a read command issuance unit that issues a read command to the memory device; a write buffer memory unit that holds data that has been read based on the read command; and a comparison write command unit that designates data written to the write buffer memory means as the first data and instructs, in the form of a comparison write command, the memory device to perform the comparison write process.
Abstract:
[Problem] In a case where a plurality of packets are compiled for transmission to a network, the length of data to be continuously transmitted to each of a plurality of destinations is increased and hence the time interval in which the packet(s) addressed to each destination gets a transmission opportunity is increased, with the result that the packet delay is disadvantageously increased. [Solution] A packet extraction unit (22 of FIG. 2) extracts a plurality of packets as a whole from a packet compilation queue (21 of FIG. 2) that sorts, according to destinations, and stores packets. A limited number of packets to be extracted as a whole at this time is given in accordance with a maximum packet compilation number defined by a maximum compilation number calculation unit (29 of FIG. 2) on the basis of a band increase and a delay increase due to a packet compilation.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a packet transmission apparatus and so on that can suppress transmission delays caused by packet integrations and that can perform the transmissions over a broad band. The packet transmission apparatus includes: a packet extraction means that searches for and extracts, from a buffer for sorting and accumulating packets for respective destinations, the packets for the respective destinations and that, if a plurality of packets addressed to an identical destination have been accumulated in the buffer, extracts the plurality of packets from the buffer; and an encapsulation means that encapsulates the packets, which have been extracted by the packet extraction means, into a single packet for each destination.
Abstract:
An information processing device that are capable of continuing access to an I/O device by operational computers even when a failure has occurred in a management computer is provided.A virtualization bridge (300) includes a monitoring unit (307) and a backup control unit (308). The virtualization bridge (300) provides operational computers (200) with virtual functions of an I/O device (400). The monitoring unit (307) detects failures in a management computer (100). The backup control unit (308) generates backup management information (341) on the basis of packets transmitted and received between the management computer (100) and the I/O device (400), and, when a failure in the management computer (100) is detected by the monitoring unit (307), controls the I/O device 400 on the basis of the backup management information (341) in place of the management computer (100).
