Abstract
Agents for performing data communication controls are installed in the respective terminals of a server which offers information such as image data, and of a client who wishes to acquire the information. Agents for controlling data communications are also installed in gateways inserted in networks to which the server and the client are connected. The agents acquire information items on the transmission bands of the networks, the structures of the other networks, etc. and information items on the processing capability of the terminal of the client, etc. by such a method of exchanging dummy packets with one another. The data to be transmitted from the terminal of the server to the terminal of the client are converted on the basis of the acquired information items by the agents.
