Abstract
An interrupt monitoring apparatus includes a storage that stores a given threshold that corresponds to an external interrupt notification; a measuring circuit that measures time that elapses from a time when the external interrupt notification is received until a time when dispatch notification is received from a CPU; a comparing circuit that compares the given threshold and the time measured by the measuring circuit; and an output circuit that outputs to the CPU, a comparison result obtained by the comparing circuit.
