TRANSFER APPARATUS, TRANSFER SYSTEM, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM

A transfer apparatus includes first and second communication paths, an accepting unit, a registration unit, an acquisition unit, and a transfer unit. The accepting unit accepts a request for data. The registration unit detects and registers a range that has been specified for writing. The acquisition unit acquires the data from a memory controller via the first communication path in a case where the request is issued for a registered range, and acquires the data from the arbitration device via the second communication path in a case where the request is issued for an unregistered range. The transfer unit transfers the acquired data. In a case where a first range detected from the arbitration device overlaps at least a portion of or is adjacent to a second range, which has been registered, the registration unit combines the first and second ranges into a continuous range and registers the continuous range.
