Abstract
A computing node which reduces substantially and effectively reduces the power consumed by a memory is provided without affecting the efficiency whereby a processor accesses the memory. The computing node executes a user program sent by a control node. In case of which a message including the capacity of the memory required to execute a user program is received, a memory rank corresponding to the capacity of the required memory is made active by a memory controller before the user program is loaded into the memory.
