<p>A system in which the present invention has been applied has one or more arithmetic processing devices provided with counters for cyclically counting the total number of clocks supplied from outside after operation has started. The system is furthermore has: a stop control means for stopping all the counters provided to the first arithmetic processing device and to the respective arithmetic processing devices that are in operation from among the one or more arithmetic processing devices when a first arithmetic processing device, which is not included among the one or more arithmetic processing devices, has been added; a reading means for reading the value of a counter provided to one of the arithmetic processing units after the arithmetic processing unit has been stopped by the stop control means; a writing means for writing the value read by the reading means to the counter provided to the first arithmetic processing unit; and a resume control means for resuming operation of all the counters that were stopped by the stop control means, after the value has been written by the writing means.</p> |
