Abstract:
1. A non-transitory recording medium having recorded therein a communication program causing non-real time communication to be executed by first and second node groups in a network for conducting real time communication between the nodes, the communication program causing at least one computer to execute a method comprising: causing a local node selected from the first node group to set a path leading from the local node to another node selected from the second node group; causing the local node to receive non-real time data on the non-real time communication from other nodes of the first node group than the local node to the second node group; and transferring, from the local node to the other node through a communication path between a first relay device coupled to the first node group and a second relay device coupled to the second node group, the non-real time data received from the other nodes, using the path, wherein real time data on the real time communication from the other nodes of the first node group is transferred to the second node group with the non-real time data using the communication path and without passing through the local node, and the local node is caused to control an amount of the non-real time data on the non-real time communication transferred through the communication path, so as to reduce conflict with the real time data on the real time communication on the communication path.
