An information processing apparatus includes: a memory device configured to store data; an arithmetic processor configured to issue a request to be transmitted to the memory device; and a memory controller including: a buffer configured to store one or more unselected requests that are issued by the arithmetic processing processor and are not selected; a history register configured to hold one or more addresses for one or more transmitted requests that have been transmitted to the memory device; and a selection unit configured to select, from the one or more unselected requests stored in the buffer, a target request to be transmitted to the memory device based on the one or more addresses stored in the history register and transmit the target request to the memory device.
