CALCULATOR DEVICE, SYSTEM MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, CALCULATION METHOD AND PROGRAM

摘要

An indicator value indicating a processing cost or an environmental burden by a specified process or user is calculated. A calculation device calculates an indicator value indicating a processing cost or an environmental burden in a system equipped with a hardware component used by a plurality of processes or users.  The calculation device comprises: an indicator value acquiring unit for acquiring the indicator value of the hardware component; an observed value acquiring unit for acquiring, for each of the processes or the users, at least one observed value changing according to the use of the hardware component used by the processes or the users; and a calculation unit for calculating, based on the obtained observed value, the used amount of the hardware component used by each of the processes or the users, distributing, according to the used amount, the indicator value obtained by the indicator value acquiring unit, and calculating the indicator value of a specified process or user in the hardware component.
