1. A computer-readable recording medium storing therein a design support program that causes a computer to execute:

  • selecting arbitrarily a module from a design target circuit;

    extracting, by accessing a table, a data amount and a power index corresponding to the module selected at the selecting, the table storing therein time-series data amounts for data signals transmitted from modules in the design target circuit and received by recipient modules, and power indexes indicative of a potential of improving power consumption in the modules according to data amount;

    detecting from among time periods during which a recipient module does not receive a data signal, time periods during which the power index meets a criterion for improving power consumption, the detecting being based on the data amount and the power index extracted at the extracting; and

    outputting the time periods detected at the detecting.
