Abstract: An information processing apparatus including a push switch turns off a power supply state of a main body and starts shutdown processing when a first user's operation is performed on the push switch in a normal state of the apparatus. When a second user's operation is performed on the push switch during the shutdown processing, the power supply state of the main body is switched between on and off. If the power supply state of the main body is the on state when the shutdown processing is completed, first processing for restarting the main body is performed, and if the power supply state of the main body is the off state when the shutdown processing is completed, second processing for stopping power supply to the main body is performed.

Abstract: A numerical controller successively pre-reads blocks of a plurality of NC programs from a memory or from a storage device connected via a network, while executing the NC programs in parallel. The execution times of the pre-read blocks are integrated in respect of all of the NC programs that are the object of pre-reading, and when an NC program having the shortest integrated execution time of the pre-read blocks can be pre-read, the next block in that NC program is pre-read. On the other hand, when that NC program cannot be pre-read, the NC program is excluded from the pre-reading objects.
