<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prefetch data in an appropriate block size. <P>SOLUTION: A data input/output part makes a request to read data in units of pages from a nonvolatile storage device and stores the read data into a buffer. A profile creating part creates a prefetch profile obtained by converting a history of the request to read the data from the nonvolatile storage device into data whose read position and size are indicated in units of blocks in a prefetch block size, the request issued by the data input/output part in accordance with a request from a program to be prefetched. A prefetching part requests the data input/output part to prefetch the data of the program to be prefetched from the nonvolatile storage device to the buffer, based on the prefetch profile. This technology is applicable, e.g., to a memory management device. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
