Abstract:
1. An information processing apparatus that processes data while accessing the data which is stored in a first storage unit or a second storage unit whose access speed is slower than that of the first storage unit, the information processing apparatus comprising: a process content determination unit configured to determine a process content, wherein the process content indicates a content of processing performed on the data; an access number prediction unit configured to predict, using a value predetermined based on the determined process content, the number of times of accesses to the data, the accesses to the data being required for performing processing on the data; and a decision unit configured to decide to store the data in the first storage unit in a case where the predicted number is more than or equal to a predetermined first threshold value, and decide to store the data in the second storage unit in a case where the predicted number is less than the first threshold value.
