Abstract: A lock control apparatus includes a control unit that controls acquisition of a lock for using a shared resource shared among a plurality of tasks by a task according to first lock information that indicates whether to permit the tasks to acquire the lock, and a determining unit that determines whether there is a conflict of requests for acquisition of the lock by the tasks, wherein when the determining unit determines that there is a conflict of requests for acquisition of the lock, the control unit controls acquisition of the lock by the tasks according to second lock information that indicates whether to permit acquisition of the lock when there is a conflict.

Abstract: A process action status monitoring section monitors the cumulative CPU time and the idle time for a plurality of processes being executed on a time-sharing basis; those results are recorded in a process action status table. A process type determination section, based on the said cumulative CPU times, classifies those processes for which the cumulative CPU time is equal to or less than a certain threshold value as interactive type process, and classifies processes for which the cumulative CPU time exceeds the threshold value as non-interactive type processes. A non-interactive type process priority control section controls the priorities of processes judged to be non-interactive type processes by the process type judgement section. An interactive type process priority control section controls the priority of processes judged to be interactive type processes.
