Information processing apparatus, operation state control method, and computer program product

摘要

According to an embodiment, an information processing apparatus that includes a processor, has a first control unit, a power storage unit, and a second control unit. The first control unit is configured to control execution of a process by the processor. The power storage unit is configured to store therein power. The second control unit is configured to control reduction of power consumption of the information processing apparatus in a case where there is a process waiting to be executed and an amount of stored power of the power storage unit is equal to or less than a first threshold.

主权项

1. An information processing apparatus capable of switching, its operation state between a first state and a second state with lower power consumption than the first state, the apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to: control execution of a process; determine, in a case where there is a process waiting to be executed, whether the apparatus is to be placed in the second state; and place the apparatus in the second state in a case where an active rate is equal to or larger than a first threshold, the active rate indicating a time for which the apparatus is in the first state per unit time.
