20080212587 | RELAY APPARATUS AND PACKET RELAY METHOD - A relay apparatus to relay packets transmitted/received between apparatuses connected via a network and method. The relay apparatus includes physical ports to transmit/receive the packets. The relay apparatus also rewrites transmission-destination identification information of a packet transmitted to the relay apparatus based on a transfer rule stored in advance. The relay apparatus also transfers control for performing control so that the packet in which the transmission-destination identification information has been rewritten is output from one of the physical ports based on the transfer rule. | 09-04-2008 |

20110154333 | MACHINE SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF OPERATING VIRTUAL MACHINE, AND PROGRAM - An information processing apparatus includes: a first virtual machine part to operate by being allocated to another information processing apparatus; a monitoring-application information storing part to store an application for monitoring the operation of the virtual machine part; a determining part to determine, in the virtual machine part, whether the application stored in the monitoring-application information storing part is operating by accessing an auxiliary storage device connected to the other information processing apparatus; a status storing part to store application information related to an operating status of the application when the determining part determines that the application is operating; an application exiting part to exit the application when the application information is stored; and a transmitting part to transmit virtual-machine information related to an operating status of the virtual machine part, together with the stored application information, to the other information processing apparatus when the application is exited. | 06-23-2011 |
20110202977 | INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, COMPUTER SYSTEM AND PROGRAM - An information processing device includes: a connection monitoring unit performs determining whether a first external device is connected, and determining whether a receiving unit receives the request from the first or second external device, wherein when the connection monitoring unit determines that the first external device is not connected, a usage permission/prohibition determining unit updates the usage permission/prohibition information stored in a management table so that the usage permission/prohibition information indicates that use of a first virtual computer is prohibited, and wherein when the connection monitoring unit determines that the receiving unit receives the request from the second external device and that the first external device is connected, the usage permission/prohibition determining unit transmits, to the first external device, information that instructs the first external device to prohibit use of a second virtual computer. | 08-18-2011 |
20110209148 | INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, VIRTUAL MACHINE CONNECTION METHOD, PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - An information processing device includes: a first connection method for logically connecting the first communication unit and the virtual machine to each other, an address notification method for giving notice of first address information indicating a transmission destination of data to be transmitted by the external device and causing the external device to set the first address information, when a connection is established on the basis of the first connection method, a first determination method for determining whether there is an abnormal connection between the first communication unit and the virtual machine, a second connection method for logically connecting the second communication unit and the virtual machine to each other when the first determination method determines that there is an abnormal connection, and a switching method for giving notice of second address information. | 08-25-2011 |
20120254439 | ALLOCATING METHOD, ALLOCATING APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER PRODUCT - An allocating method is executed by a computer. The allocating method includes transmitting to any one given apparatus among multiple apparatuses capable of executing an identical process and respectively having a different processing performance, a command for the process; duplicating the command and transmitting resulting duplicated commands to an apparatus group that is not executing the process and among the apparatuses; measuring for the given apparatus and each apparatus of the apparatus group, a utilization rate acquired when the command is executed; identifying based on the utilization rate for the given apparatus, an apparatus to be switched among the apparatus group; and switching a transmission destination of the command, from the given apparatus to the apparatus to be switched. | 10-04-2012 |
20130166632 | INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ALLOTTING PROCESSING - The disclosed invention describes an information processing apparatus, including a first processor, and a second processor. The first processor execute a procedure, including: while the second processor executes an image processing, obtaining utilization ratios of the second processor at two or more timings; first determining, by using the obtained utilization ratios, whether or not a predetermined change occurred in the utilization ratios of the second processor; upon determining that the predetermined change occurred, second determining, based on obtained utilization ratios, which processes of a plurality of processes to be executed to display screen data on a client terminal should be allocated to the second processor; and performing a setting to execute the plurality of processes according to a determination result. | 06-27-2013 |
20140156735 | DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING METHOD AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS - A distributed processing method is provided for execution in a system formed from first and second information processing apparatus. The first information processing apparatus requests the second information processing apparatus to execute a processing operation off-loaded from the first information processing apparatus, while the first information processing apparatus is capable of executing the processing operation. It is then determined whether the amount of elapsed time since the request exceeds a threshold before an execution result of the processing operation is obtained from the second information processing apparatus. When the elapsed time is determined to have exceeded the threshold, the first information processing apparatus starts to locally execute the processing operation. The first information processing apparatus uses its local execution result or the execution result obtained from the second information processing apparatus, whichever comes earlier. | 06-05-2014 |
20140195596 | COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD - Communication equipment, arranged between a terminal device and a server, includes: a detector configured to detect transmitted data that is transmitted to the terminal device and non-transmitted data that is not transmitted to the terminal device, from service data transmitted from the server to the terminal device through the communication equipment; a first calculator configured to calculate a first cost of transmitting the non-transmitted data to the terminal device; a second calculator configured to calculate a second cost of transmitting, to the terminal device, a difference image between an image corresponding to the service data and an image corresponding to the transmitted data; and a transmission scheme decision unit configured to transmit the non-transmitted data to the terminal device when the second cost is greater than the first cost and transmit the difference image to the terminal device when the second cost is smaller than the first cost. | 07-10-2014 |
