INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PRESERVING DATA

摘要

An information processing apparatus includes a controller, a first storage unit, a second storage unit, and a classification unit. The controller stores pieces of information retained in a memory on a nonvolatile storage device and, upon startup, makes the information processing apparatus return to a state before power-down. The first storage unit is part of the nonvolatile storage device and stores some pieces of information among the pieces of information retained in the memory. The second storage unit is part of the nonvolatile storage device and stores pieces of information different from those stored on the first storage unit among the pieces of information retained in the memory. The classification unit classifies the pieces of information retained in the memory. The controller stores the pieces of information retained in the memory on the first storage unit or the second storage unit in accordance with classification performed by the classification unit.

主权项

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a controller that stores pieces of information retained in a memory on a nonvolatile storage device and, upon startup, makes the information processing apparatus return to a state before power-down by using the pieces of information stored on the nonvolatile storage device; a first storage unit that is part of the nonvolatile storage device and stores at least some pieces of information among the pieces of information retained in the memory; a second storage unit that is part of the nonvolatile storage device and stores pieces of information different from the pieces of information stored on the first storage unit among the pieces of information retained in the memory; and a classification unit that classifies the pieces of information retained in the memory in accordance with a predetermined condition, wherein the controller stores the pieces of information retained in the memory on the first storage unit or on the second storage unit in accordance with classification performed by the classification unit.
