Abstract:
1. An information processing apparatus comprising: a storage unit that stores boot completion notification timing information indicating notification timing for making a boot completion notification that notifies a user that the information processing apparatus has completed boot-up and is now ready to use; a stopwatch unit that detects the boot-up of the information processing apparatus, and measures as a boot time a time elapsed from the detection of the boot-up; a determination unit that determines whether the boot time measured by the stopwatch unit has reached the notification timing indicated by the boot completion notification timing information; an output unit that outputs the boot completion notification when the determination unit determines that the boot time has reached the notification timing; an acquisition unit that acquires load conditions of the information processing apparatus on boot-up; and an update unit that updates the boot completion notification timing information stored in the storage unit, wherein the determination unit determines on the basis of the load conditions acquired by the acquisition unit whether the information processing apparatus has completed the boot-up, wherein the update unit acquires from the stopwatch unit the boot time, which indicates when the information processing apparatus completed the boot-up, when the determination unit determines that the information processing apparatus has completed the boot-up, and stores the acquired boot time as the boot completion notification timing information in the storage unit.
