摘要

An overtaking prediction method of, when input and output of data to and from a common memory are being performed with an input frame frequency and an output frame frequency made different from each other, predicting a frame in which overtaking occurs between the input and the output of the data to and from the memory. The overtaking prediction method includes a step of predicting the frame in which the overtaking occurs between the input and the output of the data, on the basis of a first parameter corresponding to a difference amount between a progress speed of a write address and a progress speed of a read address and a second parameter corresponding to a difference between a write address and a read address at an overtaking prediction point and to an offset address difference amount between an input offset address and an output offset address.
