Abstract
When a first sensor node has a large power consumption, an information processing apparatus propagates a portion of request information for a data process having the request recipient set to a second sensor node, through a path that does not pass through the first sensor node. For example, the information processing apparatus changes a division rate at a third sensor node acting as a branching point for the request information for the data process having the request recipient set to the second sensor node to thereby change the distribution of the transferred data amount and equalize the power consumption of the sensor nodes in a sensor network.
