Abstract
A multiple-processor system uses transfer blocks each having a size equal to or less than the capacity of a shared memory when transferring data from a master system to a slave system via the shared memory. Each transfer block includes a data to be transferred from the master system or a plurality of divisional data obtained by dividing the data to be transferred; information representing a writing-start address at which the data to be transferred or the plurality of divisional data starts to be written in storage for the slave system; and information representing the length of the data or the plurality of divisional data.
