According to an embodiment, a management apparatus includes a management table, a control unit, a module timer, and a judgment unit. The control unit controls an order of executing modules based on an execution order described in a management table. The module timer measures the execution time of each running module. The judgment unit writes real execution time in the management table when the real execution time at the end of the exertion is equal to or shorter than the expected execution time. Otherwise, the judgment unit writes a flag for defective condition in the management table when the real execution time is longer than the expected execution time. When a flag for defective condition is written in the management table, the control unit stops the execution of the running module and starts the execution of the next module.

Management apparatus and method for managing a startup of an operating system

An in-pipe work device comprising at least two movement mechanisms connected with each other in a longitudinal direction of a pipe by a flexible tube, and a control device for controlling the movement mechanisms, the movement mechanisms including a body connected to the flexible tube, a guide member installed on the body such that the guide member is slidable in an axial direction, a support leg drive mechanism provided on the guide member and having a support leg movable in a radial direction of the pipe, for pressing the support leg against an inner wall of the pipe, thereby to hold the guide member kept unmovable in an axis direction of the pipe, a slide mechanism for relatively sliding the guide member and the body, with the support leg pressed against the inner wall of the pipe, thereby to slide the body in the axis direction of the pipe, wherein the control device controls the in-pipe movement device so as to move in a pipe by itself, by sequentially operating the plurality of movement mechanism in a predetermined order.
