Semiconductor integrated circuit

An information processing device includes: a memory configured to hold values of state variables included in an evaluation function presenting energy and a weight value for each set of the state variables; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: calculate an energy change value when each of the values of the state variables is set as a next change candidate based on the values of the state variables and the weight value; calculate a total energy change value by adding a penalty value according to an excess amount violating an inequality constraint, to each of the energy change values calculated for the state variables, the excess amount being calculated based on a coupling coefficient and a threshold value; and change any value of the state variables in the memory based on a set temperature value, a random number value, and the total energy change values.
