==PROGRAM CONTROL DEVICE, PROGRAM CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM CONTROL PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18522312 titled 'PROGRAM CONTROL DEVICE, PROGRAM CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM CONTROL PROGRAM

The patent application describes a program control device that converts multiple programs for simultaneous execution by an accelerator into intermediate representations indicating computation operations and memory requirements. The device then determines the execution order of these representations to ensure memory usage stays below a set threshold.

* The device converts multiple programs into intermediate representations for simultaneous execution by an accelerator.
* It determines the execution order of these representations to optimize memory usage.
* The goal is to keep memory usage by the accelerator below a specified threshold.
* The device ensures efficient execution of multiple programs by managing memory usage effectively.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

A program control device includes a conversion unit which converts multiple programs to be simultaneously executed by an accelerator into intermediate representations indicating computation operations to be executed by programs and memory information indicating an amount of memory required by data used in the computation operations, respectively, and a determination unit which determines an execution order of multiple intermediate representations so that an amount of memory usage used by the accelerator when the accelerator executes the multiple programs simultaneously is below a threshold value of the memory based on the converted multiple intermediate representations and multiple memory information.
