Abstract
An ATM I/F for transmitting data to a data transmission destination via a communication network, a data transmission server, and a data transmission managing device for calculating a network necessary for data transmission on the basis of the data quantity of the data to be transmitted and the transmission completion time indicating the time of completion of data transmission to the data transmission destination are provided. Accounting information is generated on the basis of the calculated network band and transmission time. The data is transmitted to the data transmission destination by using the calculated network band. The data transmission to the data transmission destination is completed by the transmission completion time, and accounting information is generated. Thus, when transmitting data via the communication network, the data transmission completion time is designated in advance for data transmission.
