Abstract
The apparatus is set on the line between the first and second computers which respectively communicates by a protocol, such as TCP, having a flow control. The delay between the first computer and a position, at which the apparatus is set, is less than the delay between the position and the second computer . The apparatus sends and receives a packet to/from the computers . The apparatus transfers to the second computer , a data packet sent from the first computer and being larger than a maximum data amount notified by the second computer . The apparatus transfers, to the first computer , a data packet sent from the second computer , but does not transfer, to the first computer , an ACK packet sent from the second computer . The apparatus generates, instead of the second computer , an ACK packet for a data packet sent from the first computer and then sends the ACK packet to the first computer . Therefore, in a case that a large delay section having exists in the line between the computers and , it is possible to perform a high speed communication on one way by only setting one apparatus
