Claim Text:
1. A processing control system comprising: a distribution device communicatively coupled to a plurality of n processing devices, wherein n is greater than or equal to 3; a processing result determination device communicatively coupled to the plurality of n processing devices and a management device communicatively coupled to the distribution device, wherein: each of the plurality of n processing devices is configured to: process processing target information to calculate a processing result and transmit the processing result to the processing result determination device; the management device is configured to: acquire time information indicating the time required in processing of processing target information on each of the plurality of n processing devices, estimate a required time required for each of the plurality of n processing devices to process the processing target information based on the time information to obtain an estimated time, and transmit estimated time information indicating a relationship between the estimated time and each of the n processing devices to the distribution device; and the distribution device is configured to: determine m processing devices from the plurality of n processing devices for processing a series of pieces of processing target information as m designated processing devices, based on the estimated time information and the series of pieces of processing target information including the processing target information used for the estimation, and transmit the series of pieces of processing target information to the m designated processing devices; and the processing result determination device is configured to: receive m processing results from the m designated processing devices respectively, estimate a true value as an estimated value from the m processing results according to a predetermined method, and transmit the estimated value to other processing device from the m designated processing devices.
