In order to improve the efficiency of transfer to outside devices while necessary buffer memory is suppressed, the present invention is an information processing apparatus for decoding a packet that is encrypted in accordance with Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols and in which a padding portion has a variable length, the information processing apparatus including acquisition means for acquiring an encrypted packet on a unit data basis, decoding means for decoding the encrypted packet on the unit data basis, output means for outputting decoded data obtained through the decoding performed by the decoding means to an external device in accordance with an order in which the decoding is performed by the decoding means, and control means for restricting output to be performed by the output means in a case where a padding pattern is detected from the decoded data obtained through the decoding performed by the decoding means.

Decrypted packet padding removal

If data received by an external device controller from an external device is delayed by one cycle or more with respect to an output clock of the external device controller, a delay may not necessarily be detected with an existing configuration. When a data latch timing of the external device controller is adjusted, gating of or releasing gating of an output clock of the external device controller is performed in accordance with predetermined gating information, thus improving the accuracy of calibration for adjusting the data latch timing.

Information processing apparatus or information processing method

A data transferring apparatus includes a receiving unit configured to receive a transfer request containing attribute information that indicates a type of data transfer, a buffer configured to store the transfer requests received by the receiving unit, a storing unit configured to associate the attribute information with a first identifier and store the attribute information, and a sending unit configured to preferentially transmit, out of the plurality of transfer requests stored in the buffer, a transfer request containing attribute information that corresponds to the attribute information stored in the storing unit, wherein the sending unit is configured to transmit the first identifier associated with the attribute information that corresponds to the attribute information contained in the transfer request in place of the attribute information of the transfer request.

Data transferring apparatus and data transferring method

Transfer efficiency of data transfer in a single semiconductor device or between semiconductor devices is improved. A table is created by associating a combination of attribute information involved in data transfer with an identifier. When attribute information registered in the table is received, the attribute information is replaced with an identifier so that the information is compressed and transferred. Accordingly, transfer efficiency is increased in transmission or reception of a request and a response.

Data transfer apparatus, data transfer method, and inter-chip communication system

According to the present invention, a phase shift of data received by an external device controller is delayed and corrected, and a control signal used for the data load control on the external device controller side is delayed period-by-period. Further, the phase shift is adjusted and then the control signal is adjusted. The adjustment can beneficially be performed very quickly. Moreover, the present invention is also beneficial for preventing a failure to load data.

A data processing apparatus which sequentially executes a verification process so as to recognize a target object, comprising: an obtaining unit configured to obtain dictionary data to be referred to in the verification process; a holding unit configured to hold a plurality of dictionary data; a verification unit configured to execute the verification process for the input data by referring to one dictionary data; a history holding unit configured to hold a verification result; and a prefetch determination unit configured to determine based on the verification result whether to execute prefetch processing in which the obtaining unit obtains in advance dictionary data to be referred to by the verification unit in a succeeding verification process, and holds the dictionary data in the holding unit before the succeeding verification process.

Data processing apparatus, control method therefor, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

If data received by the an information processing apparatus from an external device is delayed by one cycle or more with respect to a clock of the information processing apparatus, the information processing apparatus may require an additional process for adjusting a data latch timing. Delay information indicating a relationship between a calibration pattern to be received and an amount of cycle delay is stored in advance. Thus, the time required for detecting an amount of cycle delay, which is equivalent to the amount by which a signal for controlling a data latch mechanism in the information processing apparatus to stop its operation is delayed, can be reduced.

Information processing apparatus or information processing method which supplies a clock to an external device

A packet accompanying data valid information is transferred at high efficiency within an integrated circuit or between integrated circuits. A character indicating data enable information is provided and an identifier indicating a data enable character is assigned onto the packet. When the data enable information is valid in series, the data enable characters are eliminated from the packet to be transferred.

Data transfer apparatus and data transfer method

An information processing apparatus for processing input data using multiple items of reference data in succession is provided. The apparatus includes a secondary storage unit configured to store the reference data; a primary storage unit accessible at a speed higher than that of the secondary storage unit; a read-out unit configured to read out the reference data from the secondary storage unit to the primary storage unit; an execution unit configured to execute processing of the input data using the reference data in the primary storage unit; a determination unit configured to determine, based upon at least one of a probability that reference data scheduled for use by the execution unit will change and quantity of the scheduled reference data, whether the scheduled reference data is to be prefetched; and a control unit configured to control prefetch based on the result of determination of the determination unit.

Information processing apparatus, method and computer program

An image processing apparatus includes a discrimination unit configured to sequentially perform discrimination of whether each of a plurality of image data includes a predetermined object using a parameter stored in a storage unit, an update unit configured to update the parameter stored in the storage unit, and a control unit configured to, when the discrimination unit discriminates that the predetermined object is included, control the update unit to update the parameter and the discrimination unit to perform the discrimination on current image data using the updated parameter, and when the discrimination unit discriminates that the predetermined object is not included, control the update unit to maintain the parameter stored in the storage unit and the discrimination unit to perform the discrimination on next image data using the maintained parameter. By using this image processing apparatus, the processing can be speeded up without increasing a size of a circuit.

Object detection apparatus and method thereof

An image recognition apparatus that recognizes an object related to a certain object in an image sequentially recognizes an object from the image in accordance with recognition-order information that indicates an object order in an object sequence including the certain object, the related object, and an object connected between those objects. The apparatus determines whether or not an object recognized in a current turn of recognition has a connective relationship with an extracted object obtained in a previous turn of recognition, and obtains the object that has been determined as having a connective relationship as an extracted object. Based on an object extracted by a repetition of the above processing, that is, recognition, connective relationship determination, and obtaining, in the above-described recognition order, the related object is associated with the certain object.
