摘要:
A packet communication apparatus, which includes a CPU, a memory, and a packet communication circuit, acts as an interface between a network-connected controlled object and a network terminal that remotely monitors and controls the controlled object, and transmits and receives a packet between the controlled object and the network terminal, further includes a copy and operation unit that is a hardware unit for executing the checksum calculation to check for a packet error and the copy operation. The copy and operation unit performs the packet data copy operation and the checksum calculation simultaneously between a sending buffer/receiving buffer, formed in the memory and used by the packet communication circuit, and a work area used by a communication processing program, thus reducing the load of the CPU and increasing the communication processing speed.

A vehicle control system which can ensure high reliability, real-time processing, and expandability with a simplified ECU configuration and a low cost by backing up an error through coordination in the entire system without increasing a degree of redundancy of individual controllers beyond the least necessary level. The vehicle control system comprises a sensor controller for taking in sensor signals indicating a status variable of a vehicle and an operation amount applied from a driver, a command controller for generating a control target value based on the sensor signals taken in by the sensor controller, and an actuator controller for receiving the control target value from the command controller and operating an actuator to control the vehicle, those three controller being interconnected via a network. The actuator controller includes a control target value generating unit for generating a control target value based on the sensor signals taken in by the sensor controller and received by the actuator controller via the network when the control target value generated by the command controller is abnormal, and controls the actuator in accordance with the control target value generated by the control target value generating unit.

[Problem] To provide a microprocessor in which the bottleneck due to data sharing during memory access when a CPU and a plurality of accelerators are operated in a linked up manner can be minimized, whereby enhanced multimedia processing performance can be achieved. [Means for solving the problem] A multimedia microprocessor 1 includes a CPU 11 and accelerators 12 in which the CPU 11 and the accelerators 12 perform multimedia processing in a linked up manner. In order to prevent the bottleneck caused by data sharing during memory access between the CPU 11 and the accelerators 12 via a memory 2, an I/O dedicated cache 14 is provided in front of the memory 2 to which the CPU 11 and the accelerators 12 can commonly access. Data required for data sharing is stored in the I/O dedicated cache 14, whereby data sharing between the CPU 11 and the accelerators 12 can be performed at higher speed and the speed of multimedia processing can be increased.

A high-performance information processing technique permitting updating of an instruction buffer ready for effective prefetching to branch instructions and returning to the subroutine with a small volume of hardware is to be provided at low cost. It is an information processing apparatus equipped with a CPU, a memory, prefetch means and the like, wherein a prefetch address generator unit in the prefetch means decodes a branching series of instructions including at least one branched address calculating instruction and branching instruction to a branched address out of a current instruction buffer storing the series of instructions currently accessed by the CPU, and thereby looks ahead to the branching destination address. The information processing apparatus further comprises a RTS instruction buffer for storing a series of instructions of the return destinations of RTS instructions, and series of instructions stored in the current instruction buffer are saved into the RTS instruction buffer.

A micro-controller includes a dictionary memory for storing instruction codes which appear in a program, and a compressed code memory for storing compressed codes each converted from each of the instruction codes included in the program. Each compressed code has a word length sufficiently long to identify all instruction codes included in the program. Each compressed code has a value indicative of an address in the dictionary memory at which an associated instruction code is stored. The micro-controller is responsive to an instruction code read request which specifies an address of a compressed code to read the compressed code stored in the specified address in the compressed code memory, and to subsequently read an instruction code stored in an address indicated by the compressed code in the dictionary memory.
