Abstract
A data communication control is realized in a system in which a priority terminal is shorter than a non-priority terminal in a standby time required until the terminal starts data communication after detecting that a communication medium is idle. An apparatus operating as the priority terminal determines an amount of data to be transmitted from the apparatus, and performs control for causing another apparatus operating as the non-priority terminal according to the determined amount of data.
