Information processing apparatus, method, and program

An information processing method for an information processing apparatus including at least a first operating system incapable of adding or deleting an application and a second operating system capable of adding and deleting an application, the method comprising:

• determining whether a received command is a command directed to the first operating system, which is incapable of adding or deleting an application while the first operating system is executing, or a command directed to the second operating system, which is capable of adding and deleting an application while the second operating system is executing and is different from the first operating system, by referencing a table in which the command and an operating system for processing the command are associated with each other;
• controlling a memory so that the first operating system or the second operating system can start processing based on a result of the determining;
• transferring the received command to the first operating system or the second operating system based on the result of the determining;
• storing the result of the determining;
• and
• determining that the command is directed to the second operating system if the received command is not registered in the table and information indicating the second operating system is stored in the memory.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions that when executed by a processor cause a computer of an information processing apparatus including at least a first operating system incapable of adding or deleting an application and a second operating system capable of adding and deleting an application, to perform steps for executing a process, the process comprising:

• determining whether a received command is a command directed to the first operating system, which is incapable of adding or deleting an application while the first operating system is executing, or a command directed to the second operating system, which is capable of adding and deleting an application while the second operating system is executing and is different from the first operating system, by referencing a table in which the command and an operating system for processing the command are associated with each other;
• controlling a memory so that the first operating system or the second operating system can start processing based on a result of the determining;
• transferring the received command to the first operating system or the second operating system based on the result of the determining;
• storing the result of the determining;
• and
• determining that the command is directed to the second operating system if the received command is not registered in the table and information indicating the second operating system is stored in the memory.

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• at least one memory storing a first operating system and a second operating system which is different from the first operating system;
• a processor configured to execute the first operating system and the second operating system, wherein the first operating system is incapable of adding or deleting an application while the first operating system is executing and the second operating system is capable of adding and deleting an application while the second operating system is executing;
• a determination unit configured to determine whether a received command is a command directed to the first operating system or a command directed to the second operating system by referencing a table in which the command and an operating system for processing the command are associated with each other;
• a retaining unit configured to retain the table;
• a control unit configured to control a memory so that the first operating system or the second operating system can start processing based on the determination by the determination unit;
• and
• a transfer unit configured to transfer the received command to the first operating system or the second operating system based on the determination;
• and
• a memory unit configured to store the determination by the determination unit,
• wherein the determination unit determines that the command is directed to the second operating system if the received command is not registered in the table and information indicating the second operating system is stored in the memory unit.
