An information processing device includes a global positioning system
(GPS) device configured to execute position calculation processing based
on data received from a satellite; a power supply controller configured
to control power supply to the GPS device; and a device controller
configured to monitor a state of use of the information processing device
by a user, to calculate a use frequency of the information processing
device per unit time, and to cause the power supply controller to
intermittently supply power to the GPS device if the calculated use
frequency is lower than a predefined threshold value.
