An information processing apparatus includes an interface configured to be connected with a connection apparatus, an acquisition unit configured to acquire apparatus information including a configuration or an operation specification of the connection apparatus connected with the interface, a determination unit configured to determine a control program to control the connection apparatus according to the apparatus information, and a control unit configured to use the determined control program to control the connection apparatus, wherein the connection apparatus includes an expansion connection unit and an expansion apparatus connected with the expansion connection unit, and the acquisition unit includes a first acquisition unit configured to acquire first information including a configuration or an operation specification of the expansion connection unit connected with the interface, and a second acquisition unit configured to acquire second information including a configuration or an operation specification of the expansion apparatus connected with the expansion connection unit.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

A synchronization control apparatus includes a counter that carries out a counting and outputs resulting count information, a timeout time holder that holds a predetermined timeout time and outputs the timeout time, a comparator that compares the count information output from the counter and the timeout time output from the timeout time holder, a synchronization controller that monitors a synchronization between a first processor and a second processor by comparing an output from the first processor and an output from the second processor and starts a counting, when a mis-match of the outputs from the first processor and the second processor is detected and wherein the comparator detects that the count information and the timeout time match, the comparator stops either the first processor or second processor in which a synchronization delay has occurred.
