Abstract
In an information processing apparatus, a transmitter forwards received data. A significance determination unit determines significance of the received data. Based on the significance of the received data, an operation mode selection unit selects which operation mode to apply. Power management information stored in a memory describes what power management is to be performed in each different operation mode. A control unit performs power management of the transmitter, with reference to the stored power management information corresponding to the selected operation mode.
