Patent GB-2580127-A (GB)
Title: Circuitry and method
Inventor: Mohammadi Shabbirhussain Bharmal
IPC: G11C29/12
Filed: 2018-12-21
Abstract: Method and circuitry comprising data handling circuitry having memory (instruction cache 428 or branch prediction memory 134), which in primary mode performs data handling by accessing the memory, but in secondary mode, data handling function is independent of memory. Test circuitry (memory built-in self-test MBIST) controls a test operation during execution of a data set by a data processor which executes data processing instructions by reference to the data handling function. Test circuitry controls the data handling circuitry to transition from primary to secondary modes in response to initiation of the memory test, data processor then executes data set processing instructions by reference data handling function in secondary mode whilst memory is tested (simultaneous online testing); test circuitry also controls data handler to return to primary mode on completion of test. The data handler may comprise a branch predictor 132 to predict data processor’s next data processing instruction fetched. In primary mode branch predictor may predict fetched next data processing instruction based on stored history. In secondary mode, prediction may be based on input data selected from set instruction parameters and subsets of previous branch instruction data stored in registers relating to execution outcomes and predicting fetched instruction at target address (backward branch) or next program counter value 420 (forward branch). In the secondary mode the branch predictor may alternatively generate a fixed prediction (e.g BRANCH NOT TAKEN). Alternatively the memory may be instruction cache memory 428 and include a buffer 430 holding a set number of operations to modify cache memory content.

Title: Recording medium on which evaluating program is recorded, evaluating method, and information processing apparatus
Inventor: TSUYOSHI TANIGUCHI
IPC: G06F21/55
Filed: 2019-01-24
Abstract: A cyberattack evaluation method comprises collecting and analysing a plurality of pieces of cyberattack information 12, identifying 31 an address of a cyberattack source included in the information, determining 32 an address group as a monitoring target of the cyberattack based on the identified address, calculating an evaluation value related to reliability of setting the address group as the monitoring target according to a state of detection of a cyberattack from an address included in the determined address group, and performing an output 72 corresponding to the evaluation value. The method may be performed by a processor on an information processing apparatus having a memory, or by a computer program. The evaluation value may be high, medium or low, and may be based on whether the cyberattack is detected from an IP address different from a previously-detected IP address in the address group with a change in time. The address group may be a range of addresses. The output of the evaluation value may be based on whether the corresponding address group contains an inputted inquiry target address 71, which may be the source address of a suspicious communication.
