An information processing device includes an execution unit that executes a control program for causing a functional unit to realize a predetermined function, a memory that stores the control program, a state variable indicating a state of the functional unit, and activation history of either initial activation or second and following activation, in a nonvolatile memory, and a communication unit that causes the execution unit to communicate with the functional unit, wherein the execution unit includes a first procedure where the control program is stored in the memory and the control program is read and is executed, and a second procedure where the control program pre-stored in the memory is read and is executed, refers to the activation history when activation is performed, executes the first procedure in a case of the initial activation, and executes the second procedure in a case of the second and following activation.

Information processing device, image forming apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium

A program executing apparatus, includes: a nonvolatile memory that stores a program for activating an equipment and a variable used in the program and sustains the stored program and the variable even though power is not supplied, the program and the variable being able to be read out and written into the nonvolatile memory; and an executing unit that transmits the program and the variable to the nonvolatile memory when the activation of the equipment is instructed at an initial status where the program and the variable are not stored in the nonvolatile memory, and successively executes the program using the variable stored in the nonvolatile memory, and, when the activation of the equipment is re-instructed, executes the program using the variable stored in the nonvolatile memory.
