Abstract
A management system for managing a plurality of computers and a plurality of pieces of software in a computer center includes: a selection data storage part for storing data regarding allocation destination selection, the data including at least either one of operation data and temperature data, wherein the operation data represent states of execution of the pieces of software by the computers, respectively, and temperature data represent temperature distribution in the computers; an instruction generation part for extracting an overheated computer that is assumed to emit more heat as compared with the other computers, and a less-heated computer that is assumed to emit less heat as compared with the other computers, by using the data regarding allocation destination selection, and generating an instruction for relocating at least a part of a piece of software allocated to the overheated computer to the less-heated computer; and an instruction part for outputting the instruction. This makes it possible to save energy for cooling the computers.
