Abstract
When a request is made for execution of a new application while other application is being executed or interrupted, and a judgment unit (61) has judged that no memory capacity required for execution of the new application is available in a volatile memory (12), an execution unit (2) terminates the other application having the lowest priority among the applications being executed or interrupted according to the priority of the priority information in a nonvolatile memory (11), and executes the new application.
