A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for storing a program which causes a processor to perform processing, the processing comprising:
- storing history information regarding an operation of an air-conditioning apparatus, the air-conditioning apparatus being configured to perform air-conditioning control of an air flow provided to a space isolated at least in part from an outside space by a wall, the history information indicating one or more of temperatures measured in the space in morning time of days by the air-conditioning apparatus;
- executing a generation process that includes generating criterion information by using the one or more of temperatures measured in the morning time of days indicated in the history information, the criterion information indicating threshold to be used for switching an operation mode of the air-conditioning apparatus between a first operation mode and a second operation mode, the first operation mode being a mode causing the air-conditioning apparatus to operate by a control scheme configured to determine an operation timing of the air-conditioning apparatus without taking an influence of an outdoor temperature into consideration, the second operation mode being a mode causing the air-conditioning apparatus to operate by a control scheme configured to determine an operation timing of the air-conditioning apparatus with taking the influence of the outdoor temperature into consideration;
- and
- executing a control process in response to the generated criterion information, the control process including:
- causing the air-conditioning apparatus to measure a temperature in the space;
- comparing the temperature measured in the space with the threshold indicated in the criterion information;
- in response to a comparison result indicating that the temperature measured in the space is equal to or less than the threshold, cause the air-conditioning apparatus to operate in the first operation mode, wherein a first operation start time when the air-conditioning apparatus in the first operation mode is required to start performing the air-conditioning control in order to adjust the temperature of the space to a specified temperature by a specified time is calculated without taking an influence of the outdoor temperature into consideration;
- and
- in response to a comparison result indicating that the temperature measured in the space is greater than the threshold, cause the air-conditioning apparatus to operate in the second operation mode, wherein a second operation start time when the air-conditioning apparatus in the second operation mode is required to start performing the air-conditioning control in order to adjust the temperature of the space to the specified temperature by the specified time is calculated with taking an influence of the outdoor temperature into consideration, thereby the second operation start time is determined such that a time period from the second operation start time to the specified time is longer than a time period from the first operation start time to the specified time.
