Abstract
An objective is to suppress degradation of the usability of radio terminals even in cases in which the modes of use of the radio terminals fluctuate. A placement change determiner () determines, based on information associated with conditions or future conditions estimated from the conditions in a service area to which one or more RUs (Radio Units) in a mobile communication system belong, a placement change regarding at least one NF (Network Function) among NFs in the mobile communication system. A placement destination determiner () determines, based on the information, an NF to be changed and a placement destination of the NF to be changed. A deployer () executes the placement change by instantiating the NF to be changed at the placement destination.
