Abstract
An information center calculates, from a specific departure point to a specific destination, (i) an optimal route for an in-vehicle terminal when a request terminal of a route search request is the in-vehicle terminal and (ii) an optimal route for a mobile terminal when the request terminal of the route search request is the mobile terminal, respectively. The calculated optimal route for the in-vehicle terminal is different from the calculated optimal route for the mobile terminal.
