I'm sorry for late posting and lack explanation.
Expected output is below.

I add "<processor>" and "<memory_device>" part.
"<processor>" part gets "Processor Information" part of dmidecode -t4,
and "<memory_device>" part gets existing "Memory Device" part of dmidecode -t17.
Existing "Memory Device" part means "Size" member is not "No Module Installed". 

How about this?
