Abstract: Usability improvement is achievable with respect to use of screen divisional display of windows of plural applications. Provided is an information processing apparatus including a control unit that displays divisional display information on a display screen as information associated with screen divisional display of windows of plural applications on the display screen, on the basis of a trigger operation, and displays the windows of the plural selected applications on the basis of a following operation for the displayed divisional display information while dividing display of the windows into at least a first region and a second region of the display screen. The following operation includes an operation that selects the applications for which the screen divisional display is to be executed.

Abstract: There is a demand for an information processing device capable of maintaining, as long as possible, a state in which a decrease an the processing speed of a CPU due to heat generation hardly occurs. Therefore, proposed is an information processing device including a secondary battery, and the information processing device includes a measurement unit that measures a remaining amount of the secondary battery, a determination unit that determines whether or not the remaining amount is equal to or more than a first threshold and determines whether or not a specific application is in a foreground state, and a charge control unit that stops charging the secondary battery by using an external power supply in a case where the remaining amount is equal to or more than the first threshold and the specific application is in the foreground state.

Abstract: [Problem] To achieve presenting surprising information to the user. [Solution] Provided is an information processing apparatus including a control unit that controls display of visual information performed by a display unit included in a mobile terminal, in which the control unit controls to display, based on a recognized context, one or more images highly related to the context among images captured by a user in past, onto a part of a display area of the display unit. Further provided is an information processing method including controlling, by a processor, display of visual information performed by a display unit included in a mobile terminal, in which the controlling further includes controlling to display, based on a recognized context, one or more images highly related to the context among images captured by a user in past, onto a part of a display area of the display unit.

Abstract: [Object] To achieve both prevention of overcharging of the battery and convenience of the user. [Solution] An information processing device includes: a charged capacity detection unit configured to detect a charged capacity of a battery; a charging control unit configured to control a charging circuit; and a specification unit configured to specify when discharge of the battery starts. The charging control unit performs charging suppression control on the charging circuit such that the battery is charged to a preparatorily charged capacity that is lower than a fully charged capacity of the battery, on the basis of the charged capacity detected by the charged capacity detection unit, the charging of the battery stops when the charged capacity of the battery reaches the preparatorily charged capacity, and the charging of the battery restarts from the preparatorily charged capacity before discharge of the battery starts.
