Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem in which: conventionally, since the content of main memory remains undeleted unless an application program is terminated, a device including non-volatile main memory keeps holding the content of the main memory.SOLUTION: There is provided an information processing apparatus having a CPU and non-volatile main memory, the information processing apparatus securing a memory area in the main memory during the execution of an application, and deleting information stored in the memory area and opening the memory area when the application finishes using the memory area. Also provided is a control method of the information processing apparatus. 【課題】 従来は、アプリケーションプログラムを終了しない限りメインメモリの内容が消去されないため、不揮発のメインメモリを備えた装置では、メインメモリの内容が保持されたままとなる。【解決手段】 ＣＰＵと、不揮発のメインメモリとを有する情報処理装置とその制御方法であって、アプリケーションの実行時に前記メインメモリにメモリ領域を確保し、そのアプリケーションが、そのメモリ領域の使用を終了すると、そのメモリ領域に記憶されている情報を消去して、そのメモリ領域を解放する。【選択図】 図６
