Information processing apparatus, power control method, and computer product

An information processing method executed by a computer, the information processing method comprising:

• detecting a scheduled starting time of an event that is to be corrected and to be executed at a given time or thereafter;
• detecting in processing contents that are different from that of the event detected at the former detecting, a scheduled starting time of each event among a plurality of events to be executed at the given time or thereafter;
• calculating the difference between the scheduled starting time detected at the former detecting and each of the scheduled starting times detected at the latter detecting;
• determining a target event for the event to be corrected, from among the plurality of events and based on the differences calculated at the calculating;
• and
• correcting the scheduled starting time detected at the detecting such that (1) the difference between the scheduled starting time detected at the detecting and the scheduled starting time of the target event determined at the determining decreases and (2) an execution time period of a device, triggered by the target event and an execution time period of the device, triggered by the event to be corrected overlap with each other, wherein the device executes the event that is to be corrected and the target event.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing therein an information processing program that causes a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

• detecting a scheduled starting time of an event that is to be corrected and to be executed at a given time or thereafter;
• detecting in processing contents that are different from that of the event detected at the former detecting, a scheduled starting time of each event among a plurality of events to be executed at the given time or thereafter;
• calculating the difference between the scheduled starting time detected at the former detecting and each of the scheduled starting times detected at the latter detecting;
• determining a target event for the event to be corrected, from among the plurality of events and based on the differences calculated at the calculating;
• and
• correcting the scheduled starting time detected at the detecting such that (1) the difference between the scheduled starting time detected at the detecting and the scheduled starting time of the target event determined at the determining decreases and (2) an execution time period of a device, triggered by the target event and an execution time period of the device, triggered by the event to be corrected overlap with each other, wherein the device executes the event that is to be corrected and the target event.
