Abstract

See full text

An information processing apparatus (2000) includes a plurality of surfaces. A vibration detection unit (2020) detects a vibration applied to the information processing apparatus (2000). An operation surface detection unit (2040) detects an operation surface, which is a surface to which a vibration is applied, based on the vibration detected by the vibration detection unit (2020). An apparatus state detection unit (2060) detects a state of the information processing apparatus (2000). An application state detection unit (2080) detects a state of an application. A process determination unit (2100) determines a predetermined process to be executed, based on the operation surface detected by the operation surface detection unit (2040), the state of the information processing apparatus (2000) detected by the apparatus state detection unit (2060), and the state of the application detected by the application state detection unit (2080).
