Patent ID: 8832496

Claim:
A computer-readable, non-transitory medium storing therein an information managing program causing a computer to execute a process comprising: extracting from a group of events that have occurred at a group of objects under management and having dependence relations, combinations of a first event that has occurred at a source-of-dependence object and a second event that has occurred at a dependent object that is dependent on the source-of-dependence object; judging for each extracted combination, whether a dependence relation exists between the first event and the second event, by using the difference between the time of occurrence of the first event and that of the second event; calculating a degree of reliability by dividing the number of combinations having the extracted first and second events by the total number of the combinations; and determining from among the group of events and based on a judgment result obtained at the judging and the degree of reliability calculated at the calculating, an event that has occurred at an object that is a source-of-dependence object but not a dependent object, to be an event that is to be stored.
