Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of information stored in the job priority storage unit 41 of FIG.
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of information stored in the executed job storage unit 42 in FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating the schedule storage unit 4 in FIG.
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of information stored in No. 3;

Referring to FIG. 1, the power recovery automatic operation control method of the information processing apparatus according to the present invention includes a power recovery start determination unit 1 for determining whether the information processing apparatus has been started at the time of power recovery, and program control. It includes a control unit 2 that operates, a current time management unit 3 that manages the current time, and a storage unit 4 that stores information.

The storage unit 4 includes a job priority storage unit 41, an executed job storage unit 42, and a schedule storage unit 43.

As shown in FIG. 2, in the job priority storage section 41, "importance", "time to start", "time to end", "scheduled processing time", "job name" Is registered and held in advance. Note that the “importance” is classified into high and low, but may be divided into high, medium, and low, or may be further subdivided.

As shown in FIG. 3, each time the execution of each job registered in the job priority storage unit 41 is completed on the current day, the executed job storage unit 42 registers and stores the executed job. ing. The definition of the day is, for example, after 0:00 when the day changes, and the registered information is deleted by initializing the executed job storage unit 42 at 0:00 every day. As a result, when the power is restored, the executed job storage unit 4
Referring to FIG. 2, the job of the day completed by the time of the power failure will be identified.

As shown in FIG. 4, the schedule storage section 43 registers the execution schedule of each reconstructed job as information on the job name and the execution order.

The control unit 2 includes a job schedule reconfiguration unit 21 and a job execution management unit 22.

The job schedule reconfiguring unit 21 starts operation by receiving the activation of the information processing apparatus at the time of power recovery from the power recovery start determining unit 1 and acquires the current time from the current time management unit 3. Then, the power recovery start time is determined.
Further, information such as “importance” and “time to start” for each job is read from the job priority storage unit 41, and information on the job executed before the power failure is acquired from the executed job storage unit 42 and executed. The job is deemed unnecessary and excluded from the schedule, and the job schedule is reconfigured according to the priority at the time of power recovery. Then, the reconfigured job schedule is registered in the schedule storage unit 43. Note that the priority of a job is such that “importance” registered in the job priority storage unit 41 is higher in the order of high, middle, and low. If there are a plurality of jobs of the same importance, “time to start” is It is assumed that earlier ones starting from 0:00 have higher priority.

The job execution management unit 22 obtains the reconfigured execution job schedule from the schedule storage unit 43 and executes the job according to the schedule.
Each time the execution of the job is completed, the completed job information is registered in the executed job storage unit 42.

Next, the operation of the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation of the embodiment of the present invention.

First, the job schedule reconfiguring unit 21 of the control unit 2 started by the power recovery start determination unit 1 due to the power recovery acquires the start time from the current time management unit 3 (FIG. 5). Step A1).

Next, the job schedule reconstruction unit 21
Confirms that there is job information stored in the job priority storage unit 41 of FIG. 2 (step A2), and stores the job with the highest priority (“importance” in FIG. 2) from the job priority storage unit 41. And the information (importance, time to start, time to end, scheduled processing time, job name) is read. In the case of FIG. 2, job A whose “importance” is high and “start time” is the earliest 0:30 is selected, and its information is read (step A3).

Next, the job schedule reconstruction unit 21 searches the executed job storage unit 42 to determine whether the read job has already been executed (step A4 → step A5).

Referring to FIG. 3, since the job A has been stored in the completed job storage section 42, the process returns from step A5 to step A2 (step A5 → step A2).

Returning to step A2, the job schedule restructuring unit 21 confirms that there is still job information stored in the job priority storage unit 41, and retrieves the next highest priority job from the job priority storage unit 41. Select and read information. In the case of FIG. 2, the job B whose “importance” is high and the “time to start” is 0:40, which is the next earliest, is selected and its information is read (step A3).

Thereafter, the job schedule reconstruction unit 21
Searches the executed job storage unit 42 and reads that job A has been executed, but proceeds to step A6 because job B has not been executed (step A4 → step A5).

In step A6, the job schedule restructuring unit 21 recognizes the information that the scheduled processing time of the job B is 10 minutes as the total job processing time. Calculate the execution end time from the calculated time. For example, assuming that the time when the power is restored and started is 5:30, the execution end time is 5:40 obtained by adding 10 minutes of the total job processing time to 5:30 (step A6).

The job schedule restructuring unit 21 determines whether the execution end time calculated in step A6 exceeds 6:00, which is the “time to end” of job B. In this case, since 5:40 is before 6:00 which is the “time to end” of the job B, the job B can be executed, and the job schedule restructuring unit 21 sets the job B as the execution order 1 as shown in FIG. It is registered in the storage unit 43 (step A7 → step A8).

Returning from step A8 to step A2, the job schedule restructuring section 21 repeats the operations of steps A2 to A8 again. This time, the job C having the highest priority next to the job B is selected and its information is read.
It is calculated that the execution end time is 5:45 (power recovery start time 5: 30 + total job processing time of jobs B and C 15 minutes), and 22:00 which is “time to end” of job C
Before confirming that the execution can be ended, as shown in FIG.
3 (step A2 to step A8).

Thereafter, steps A8 to A
Returning to step 2, the next priority job D is selected and its information is read. It is calculated that the execution end time of job D is 6:15 (power recovery start time 5: 30 + total job processing time of jobs B, C, and 45 minutes), which is the “time to end” of job D. Since the time exceeds a certain 6:00, the process returns to step A2 from step A7 without registering in the schedule storage unit 43 (step A2 to step A7).

Returning from step A7 to step A2, the job schedule reconstruction unit 21 confirms that there is no more remaining job information in the job priority storage unit 41, and activates the job execution management unit 22. Job execution management unit 22
Executes each job according to the execution order of the jobs registered in the schedule storage unit 43, and executes the executed job storage unit 4
In step A2, the executed information is registered each time the execution of each job is completed (step A2 → step A9).

When the above-described operation of the automatic operation control system at the time of power recovery according to the present invention is completed at the time of power recovery, normal operation control is started. That is, the job execution management unit 22 executes each job based on the “time to start” registered in the job priority storage unit 41, and stores the execution end of each job in the executed job storage unit 42. Register the executed information each time.

In the above description, the case where there is one information processing device has been described. However, the present invention can be applied to a case where there are a plurality of information processing devices. A case where there are a plurality of information processing apparatuses will be described with reference to FIG.
