Abstract: An information processing device includes a computing unit and a display unit. The computing unit computes a power consumption per a predetermined time during a power saving mode that reduces power consumption, on the basis of a count per type of an interrupt signal produced during the power saving mode, and a power consumption pre-estimated per type of the interrupt signal. The display unit displays a power consumption computed by the computing unit using generated or stored electric power.

Abstract: A power supply control device includes a monitoring controller, a moving body detector, and a power supply controller. The monitoring controller controls a processor, an interface part, and an identification information acquisition part. The moving body detector detects whether or not a moving body including a user who intends to use the processor exists within a specific region. The power supply controller individually allows objects to be controlled including the processor, the interface part, the identification information acquisition part, and the monitoring controller to enter a power supply state or a power interruption state in an independent manner, in accordance with detection information by the moving body detector, and first controls the identification information acquisition part to be shifted from the power interruption state to the power supply state in a case where all the objects to be controlled are in the power interruption state.

Abstract: A processing control apparatus includes a processor, a setting unit, and a delay unit. The processor operates by using power supplied from a main power supply, and executes a process on the basis of received information. The setting unit restricts power supply from the main power supply to the processor, and sets a restricted period in which a process is prohibited from being executed in the processor. In the case where a specific process which is being executed when the restricted period is to start will be completed within a predetermined allowed time period, the delay unit delays the time when the restricted period is start at least until the specific process is completed.

Abstract: A display control device includes a display device, a detector, and a prohibiting unit. The display device displays a consumed power value indicating power consumed by a processing section that operates on power supplied from a principal power source section. The detector operates on power from an auxiliary power source section that is different from the principal power source section to detect presence or absence of a mobile body within an area determined in advance. The prohibiting unit prohibits the display device from displaying the consumed power value for a period for which the detector is not detecting a mobile body or a part of the period.
