Abstract

An information processing device includes a detection unit, a determining unit, and an execution unit. The detection unit detects that data is stored in a predetermined storage area in a memory. The determining unit determines whether the data stored in the predetermined storage area satisfies an execution condition of predetermined processing associated with the predetermined storage area. The execution unit executes the predetermined processing when the data satisfies the execution condition.

Claims

1. An information processing device comprising:

a detection unit configured to detect that data is stored in a predetermined storage area in a memory;

a determining unit configured to determine whether the data stored in the predetermined storage area satisfies an execution condition of predetermined processing associated with the predetermined storage area; and

an execution unit configured to execute the predetermined processing when the data satisfies the execution condition.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1, wherein

the execution condition is a condition for determining whether the data contains a predetermined character string, and

the execution unit executes the predetermined processing when the data contains the predetermined character string.

3. The information processing device according to claim 1, wherein

the execution condition is a condition for determining whether the data has a name containing a predetermined character string, and

the execution unit executes the predetermined processing when the data has a name containing the predetermined character string.

4. The information processing device according to claim 1, wherein

the execution condition is a condition for determining whether the data has a predetermined data format, and

the execution unit executes the predetermined processing when the data has the predetermined data format.

5. The information processing device according to claim 1, wherein the determining unit determines whether the data satisfies the execution condition at timing at which the data is stored in the predetermined storage area.

6. The information processing device according to claim 1, wherein the determining unit determines whether the data satisfies the execution condition at timing at which the predetermined processing associated with the predetermined storage area is performed on the data stored in the predetermined storage area.

7. The information processing device according to claim 1, further comprising:

a notification unit configured to send a notification indicating a result of the predetermined processing to a notification destination associated with the predetermined storage area.

8. The information processing device according to claim 1, wherein, when the data fails to satisfy the execution condition, the notification unit sends an error indicating that the data stored in the predetermined storage area fails to satisfy the execution condition to a notification destination of a user who stores the data in the predetermined storage area.

9. An information processing system comprising:

an information processing device, and

an electronic device to input or output data to or from the information processing device, wherein

the information processing device includes;

a detection unit configured to detect that data is stored in a predetermined storage area in a memory;

a determining unit configured to determine whether the data stored in the predetermined storage area satisfies an execution condition of predetermined processing associated with the predetermined storage area; and

an execution unit configured to execute the predetermined processing when the data satisfies the execution condition.

10. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory recording medium including a computer program for causing a computer to execute:

detecting that data is stored in a predetermined storage area in a memory;

determining whether the data stored in the predetermined storage area satisfies an execution condition of predetermined processing associated with the predetermined storage area; and

executing the predetermined processing when the data satisfies the execution condition.
