Abstract:
1. An information processor that is driven by a battery, comprising: a set information storage unit storing evacuation residual quantity information representing an evacuation residual quantity as a residual quantity of the battery that corresponds to electric power necessary for executing a data evacuation process for storing data, stored in a memory of the information processor, onto a nonvolatile recording medium; a battery residual quantity detecting unit detecting the battery residual quantity of the battery; a load information collecting unit acquiring load information representing an electric load of the information processor; an evacuation residual quantity setting unit setting the evacuation residual quantity based on the load information collected by the load information collecting unit and based on a difference between a battery residual power that was detected by the battery residual quantity detecting unit at a beginning of a prior data evacuation process and a battery residual power that was detected by the battery residual quantity detecting unit at a completion of the prior data evacuation process, the evacuation residual quantity setting unit controlling the set information storage unit to store the evacuation residual quantity information representing the set evacuation residual quantity; and an evacuation control unit controlling execution of the data evacuation process based on the battery residual quantity detected by the battery residual quantity detecting unit and the evacuation residual quantity information stored in the set information storage unit, wherein the evacuation control unit executes the data evacuation process when the battery residual quantity detected by the battery residual quantity detecting unit is less than or equal to the evacuation residual quantity set by the evacuation residual quantity setting unit.
