An aspect of the present invention for solving the above problem is a system including a first computer, a control module controlled by the first computer, and a second computer configured to be associated with the control module. The second computer includes a plurality of units, and each of the plurality of units includes a first memory that stores a value indicating a state of a node, a second memory that stores a coefficient, and an arithmetic circuit. The arithmetic circuit performs an arithmetic process of determining a value indicating a state of a node of its own unit, based on a value indicating a state of a node of a different unit and the coefficient of its own unit, and storing the determined value in the first memory. The control module supplies a control signal for controlling the arithmetic process to the second computer.
