Abstract
A device arrangement rule generation unit generates device arrangement rules each including a past installation space of devices and relative direction information indicating a relative direction between devices that were arranged in the past installation space. An input unit inputs information on a new installation space and devices to be arranged in the new installation space. A device arrangement rule extraction unit extracts device arrangement rules each including the devices to be arranged in the new installation space input by the input unit. A device arrangement calculation unit calculates an arrangement position of the devices to be arranged in the new installation space based on relative direction information included in one of the device arrangement rules extracted by the device arrangement rule extraction unit and based on dimensions of the devices to be arranged in the new installation space input by the input unit.
