[Problem] Failure of a processing unit that processes a plurality of pieces of information is discovered in a short time.

[Solution] An information processing device 100 includes: an identifier adding unit 2 that adds identifiers 60000 to 61023 including at least one type of valid identifier to each of a plurality of pieces of information 40000 to 41023; a plurality of input memories 20000 to 21023 that hold the plurality of pieces of information 40000 to 41023 and the identifiers 60000 to 61023, respectively; a plurality of output memories 30000 to 31023 that hold a plurality of pieces of information 50000 to 51023 processed by the processing unit 1 and the identifiers 70000 to 71023 added to the plurality of pieces of information 50000 to 51023, respectively; and an identifier inspecting and verifying unit 3 that performs inspection and verification by comparing at least one identifier that becomes an inspecting and verifying target identifier among the identifiers 70000 to 71023 to the valid identifier held in the input memory corresponding to the output memory that holds the inspecting and verifying target identifier.

The present invention provides a control method of a server, wherein the control method includes the steps of: periodically controlling a first register and a second register of a first node to have a first value and a second value, respectively; periodically controlling a third register and a fourth register of a second node to have a third value and a fourth value, respectively; controlling the first register and the fourth register to synchronize with each other, wherein the first value is different from the fourth value; controlling the second register and the third register to synchronize with each other, wherein the second value is different from the third value; and periodically checking if the third register has the third value and the fourth register has the fourth value to determine if the first node fails to work.

According to a computer-implemented method, a chat data set is received, which chat data set includes information indicative of a plurality of natural language chat transcripts of chats that occurred between a virtual agent and a human. Machine logic analyzes the chat data set to identify an error that occurred in the operation of the virtual agent. The machine logic updates a chat model based on the chat data set.

A memory controller including memory address decode circuitry that detects silent data errors that occur in the memory address decode circuitry during runtime is provided. The memory address decode circuitry includes address decode circuitry to covert a received physical address to a memory address, reverse address decode circuitry to convert the memory address to a second physical address and address compare circuitry to compare the received physical address and the second physical address to detect a silent error.

A method performed by a controller of a solid state drive (SSD) comprising receiving from a host a write request to store write data in a nonvolatile semiconductor storage device of the SSD. The method also comprises identifying a first codeword and a second codeword stored in the nonvolatile storage device, the first codeword and the second codeword configured to store write data corresponding to the write request. Responsive to the write request, the method comprises writing a first portion of the write data to the first codeword and writing a second portion of the write data to the second codeword, and sending a message to the host once the write data has been written to the nonvolatile semiconductor storage device. The first and second codewords are adjacently stored, and the write data has a length that is greater than the length of the first and second codewords.

Methods, systems, and devices for performing memory command verification are described. A system may include a memory device and a memory controller, which may be external (e.g., a host device). The memory device may receive, from the memory controller, a command indicating a type of operation and an address. The memory device may decode the command and execute an operation (e.g., the operation corresponding to the decoded command) at an execution location on the memory device. The system (e.g., the memory device or the memory controller) may determine whether the executed operation and execution location match the type of operation and address indicated in the command, and the system may thereby determine an error associated with the decoding, the execution, or both of the command.

Failure of a processing unit that processes a plurality of information pieces is discovered in a short time. An information processing device 100 including a processing unit 1 that processes a plurality of information pieces includes: an identifier assignment unit 2 that assigns identifiers 60000 to 61023 to the plurality of information pieces 40000 to 41023, respectively; a plurality of input memories 20000 to 21023 that retain the plurality of information pieces 40000 to 41023 and the identifiers 60000 to 61023 assigned to the plurality of information pieces 40000 to 41023, respectively; a plurality of output memories 30000 to 31023 that retain the plurality of information pieces 50000 to 51023 processed by the processing unit 1 and the identifiers 70000 to 71023 assigned to the plurality of processed information pieces 50000 to 51023, respectively; an identifier verification unit 3 that verifies the identifiers 70000 to 71023 by comparing the identifiers 70000 to 71023 with the identifiers 60000 to 61023, respectively; and an error handling unit 4 that performs error handling when identifiers do not match with each other.

It is detected whether write data has been correctly transmitted to a storage device under a protocol for directly connecting the storage device to a processor. An information processing system including: a processor; a memory; and a storage device, the processor first transmitting to the storage device, a command to invalidate data in a data area and which is designated by a write command, the storage device invalidating the data, the processor second transmitting to the storage device, the write command to write the data into the data area, and the storage device writing the data into the data area in accordance with the write command, validating the data in a data area into which the storage device has been successful in writing the data, and maintaining the data invalidated in a data area into which the storage device has failed in writing the data.

A control system for a storage apparatus includes two input/output modules (IOMs), and two non-volatile memory (NVM) devices that are electrically connected to the IOMs, respectively, and that each store a firmware code. Each of the IOMs is configured to execute a firmware corresponding to the firmware code stored in the corresponding NVM device, and to enter an active mode or a passive mode after executing the firmware. The IOMs are configured such that when one IOM operating in the passive mode detects abnormal operation of the other IOM operating in the active mode, the one IOM sends, to the other IOM, the firmware code stored in the NVM device electrically connected to the one IOM, in order to update the firmware code in the NVM device electrically connected to the other IOM.
