Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An information processing device includes a command analysis unit configured to analyze a tendency of a command instruction for accessing a controller for each of applications, and a command delivery arbitration unit configured to arbitrate delivery of commands to the controller based on an analysis result by the command analysis unit.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An information processing device connected to a controller to control access to the controller when commands for accessing the controller are given from a plurality of applications, the information processing device comprising: a command analysis unit configured to analyze an access tendency of a command of the commands for accessing the controller from each of the plurality of applications, wherein the access tendency is defined by (i) a type of the command, (ii) a frequency of the command, and (iii) a periodicity of a command interval of the command for accessing the controller from each of the plurality of applications in a predetermined cycle period; and a command delivery arbitration unit configured to arbitrate delivery of the commands to the controller based on the access tendency analyzed by the command analysis unit. 2. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising: an arbitration correction tool unit configured to visualize a timing chart illustrating a state of command delivery for each of the plurality of applications to the controller and an analysis result by the command analysis unit, and correct a parameter related to arbitration of the command delivery. 3. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein: an analysis result by the command analysis unit includes information related to priority for each application of the plurality of applications and priority for each command of the commands; and the command delivery arbitration unit is configured to, in response to the commands being excessively delivered, arbitrate command delivery in a delivery order according to the priority for each application and the priority for each command.
