Abstract:
A processing time necessary from start by end of processing of a first processing group and a second processing group is calculated. A time difference between a dead line previously set as a maximum tolerance value of the processing time necessary by completion of the processing of the first processing group, and the calculated processing time is calculated. An initial value of a processing time allowable value of the second processing group is calculated based on the time difference. The processing time allowable value is updated at the time of processing in the operating system. It is judged whether or not the second processing group can be executable based on the updated processing time allowable value.
Abstract:
An input unit receives a viewing condition inputted by a user for a received broadcast content. A reproduction unit reproduces the broadcast content which meets the viewing condition while controlling a reproduction rate indicating a reproduction speed of the broadcast content.
Abstract:
A pivotal micromotion device includes a straight movable body, a pivotal body, and, a mechanism for transmitting and transforming a straight motion of the movable body to a pivotal motion of the pivotal body. The tramsmitting mechanism comprises an elastic reduced angular movement transmitting member having a fixed end located on the pivotal body side and a free end located on the movable body side, respectively, so as to be disposed between the movable and pivotal bodies; a first engagement member for engaging the free end of the transmitting member with the movable body; and second engagement member for engaging a position between the fixed and free ends of the transmitting member with a position near an outer periphery of the pivotal body.
Abstract:
Under the circumstances that a lock object which performs a restriction control on an exclusive use of a sharable resource is granting a second information processor a right of prior use of the sharable resource over a first information processor, a time length of exclusive use during which the sharable resource is exclusively used by the second information processor is measured when an attempt to acquire the right of prior use requested by the first information processor for the lock object fails, and least two standby operations are set, the at least two standby operations being carried out by the first information processor until the right of prior use of the sharable resource granted to the second information processor is no longer valid, and the time length of exclusive use is compared to a decision threshold value preset for evaluation of the time length of exclusive use so that one of the standby operations suitable for a comparison result is selected.
Abstract:
An information processing device and a mobile terminal include a power consumption calculator which calculates, for each processing executed by the information processing device (or mobile terminal), power consumption information concerning an amount of power consumed by executing each processing. A request generator compares the amount of power indicated by the power consumption information and a remaining amount of power of the information processing device(or mobile terminal), and generates a request to execute predetermined processing according to a result of the comparison. A request processor executes the predetermined processing in response to the generated request.

Abstract:
An information processing device, for use in a mobile terminal unable to obtain power consumption information from an external source, which can estimate, based on an actual performance value, a battery life, power consumption for processing that changes depending on the usage by the user, and so on, and ensures execution of processing specified by the user for a specified period of time, the information processing device comprising a power consumption calculating unit which calculates, for each processing executed by the information processing device, power consumption information concerning an amount of power consumed by executing each processing; a request generating unit which compares the amount of power indicated by the power consumption information and a remaining amount of power of the information processing device, and generates a request to execute predetermined processing according to a result of the comparison; and a request processing unit which executes the predetermined processing in response to the generated request.
