HEAT GENERATION CONTROL METHOD, AND HEAT GENERATION CONTROL DEVICE

摘要

A control execution unit (114) of a control stack (110) contained in a software stack causes a receiving unit (112) to receive the temperatures of a main processor and a graphic processor. When it is discriminated on the basis of those temperatures that a thermal error has occurred, the control execution unit (114) causes a class acquisition unit (116) to acquire the class of an active application. Moreover, the control execution unit (114) executes a hardware control operation to adjust the action of a hardware and a software control operation to change the action contents of the application, thereby to control the heat generation state of the hardware. When the software control operation is to be executed, a control method according to the combination of a portion, at which the thermal error has occurred, and the kind of the active application is acquired from a reaction table (118), thereby to control the software control operation by the control method acquired.
