Abstract
Whenever, there occurs a predetermined event which occurs periodically, a host section which includes a host processormakes a judgment of whether or not it is an engine-mode state in which an engine sectionis executing an engine application, and whether or not it is estimated that the engine-mode state will be continued. When this judgment result is affirmative, the host section notifies to the engine sectioninformation which the host section has collected after the previous notification, and which is to be notified periodically to the engine section. As a result of this, at a periodic timing called as an occurrence of a predetermined event, periodic notification data is notified from the host section to the engine sectionTherefore, in a configuration which includes a host section including a host processor, and an engine section including an engine processor, which executes a predetermined function under a control of the host section, an increase in a load on the engine sectionis suppressed.
