An aspect of the present invention is a communication path search device that constructs a multicast path of a plurality of nodes connected to a network, the communication path search device including a network device information management unit configured to manage a device specification including constraint information on the number of branches of each of the nodes on the network, a network topology management unit configured to manage link information between the nodes on the network, and a multicast tree calculation unit configured to construct a Steiner tree of a path connecting a start node and an end node based on a new request, an existing request, the constraint information on the number of branches of each of the nodes, constraint information on a maximum number of branches of each of the nodes, and the link information, the new request and the existing request each including start node and end node information.

Communication path finding device, communication path finding method, and program

Distribution devices are each connected to a single or a plurality of line switching networks and a single or a plurality of packet switching networks, selects either the line switching network or the packet switching network as the distribution destination on the basis of distribution policy information in a case where data to which the service providing device or the calculation device is set as a transmission destination, and transmits the received data to the selected switching network is received, and the distribution device captures the received data on the basis of the aggregation policy information and transmit the data to the service providing device or the calculation device corresponding to the transmission destination of the captured data in a case where data transmitted by the other distribution device is received from the line switching network or the packet switching network.
