20100118068 | RECORDING ELEMENT SUBSTRATE, RECORDING HEAD INCLUDING THE SAME, AND RECORDING HEAD CARTRIDGE - Even when a contact connection failure of electrical connection occurs between a recording head including a recording element substrate, and a recording apparatus, continuous driving of the same heat generating resistive element is suppressed. Blocks in which heat generating resistive elements are not driven are prepared beforehand in a selection target of blocks to be driven in a time-division manner. When an input signal is in a predetermined condition, the block selection target is set to blocks in which heat generating resistive elements are not driven. | 05-13-2010 |

20120222034 | ASYNCHRONOUS CHECKPOINT ACQUSITION AND RECOVERY FROM THE CHECKPOINT IN PARALLEL COMPUTER CALCULATION IN ITERATION METHOD - A method and system to acquire checkpoints in making iteration-method computer calculations in parallel and to effectively utilize the acquired data for recovery. At the time of acquiring a checkpoint in parallel calculation that repeats an iteration method, each node independently acquires the checkpoint in parallel with the calculation without stopping the calculation. Thereby, it is possible to perform both of the calculation and the checkpoint acquisition in parallel. In the case where the calculation does not impose an I/O bottleneck, checkpoint acquisition time is overlapped, and execution time is reduced. In this method, checkpoint data including values at different points of time during the acquisition process is acquired. By limiting the use purpose to iteration-method convergence calculations, mixture of the values at the different points of time in the checkpoint data is accepted in the problem that a convergence destination does not depend on an initial value. | 08-30-2012 |
