Patent attributes
An IoT device management apparatus includes: a locality calculating unit which receives a result of predetermined processing having been performed with respect to acquired information from cameras as IoT devices by applications associated with computes so as to constitute a virtual machine and which, by determining a locality indicating a closeness of arrangement positions of the plurality of cameras to be high when a degree of coincidence among pieces of acquired information from the cameras representing received results is high, calculates locality information that is a result of the determination; and an application generation recovery control unit which extracts a pair of cameras with a high locality from the locality information and which performs control for associating applications related to the extracted pair of cameras with different computes.
