Abstract
The transition between a normal operation mode and a power save mode of an apparatus is controlled by determining whether a power save mode transition condition is satisfied, the power save mode transition condition defining a condition under which the normal operation mode is to be switched to the power save mode, and sending notification from a sub controller to a main controller when the power save mode transition condition is satisfied.
