This invention is applied to a system design support system which handles at system level, e.g., a specification for software executed by a computer, a specification for hardware combined with semiconductor devices and the like, a specification for an embedded system constituted by a combination of software and hardware, and a specification for a business process such as a work flow. A consideration is given to difficulty in efficiently implementing an interrupt in a specification created in a system description language in such a case where the interrupt is defined at a lower level which is structurally separate from a portion where the interrupt actually occurs. An interrupt structure localizing apparatus specifies a portion in a system-level specification in which an interrupt actually occurs and localizes the portion, thereby obtaining a specification structure in which an interrupt does not occur across hierarchical structures.
