Abstract: A passage channel is calculated by taking into account a plurality of requirements having different importance degrees. A channel calculation unit (202) of a transport control server (100) calculates a plurality of passage channel candidates with respect to a passage setting request wherein an active passage candidate and a standby passage candidate are paired in the passage channel candidate; and calculates the occurrence number of phenomena that violate a predetermined requirement relating an operation of the active passage and the standby passage, or a value of a network element for determining whether the requirement is violated, with respect to each passage channel candidate. A cost calculation unit (205) calculates the cost of a passage channel from the calculated number of occurrence, network element value, and a predetermined cost calculation coefficient corresponding to the requirement.

Abstract: A data synchronization system transfers data between multiple data synchronization servers connected to a network path. The data synchronization server calculates a transfer delay on a network path involved in the transfer of data of multiple applications in an application server to another data synchronization server, predicts a time at which the transfer delay will exceed the requested delay of each application, and controls the transmission rate of data for each application so that times, at which the transfer delays will exceed the requested delays of all applications, become the same. In this way, the data synchronization system controls the data synchronization of applications between remotely installed distributed data centers so that the requested delay of each application is satisfied as much as possible.

Abstract: A transport control server (TCS) identifies a backup path B switched over to from an active path A due to a path change or a fault, based on information in a path change notification or a fault notification. The TCS identifies a backup path C affected by the switchover from the active path to the backup path. The TCS identifies nodes in which a setting change to delete the backup path C is needed and nodes in which a backup path D should be set up as an alternative to the backup path C and transmits a setting change notification to these nodes.

Abstract: A transport control server coupled to a plurality of nodes in a network through which a plurality of traffics passes through is provided. The transport control server is configured to receive bandwidth information from each of the nodes when the traffics pass through the nodes. For each of the traffics, the transport control server calculates bandwidths at an entry edge node and at an exit edge node based on the received bandwidth information. The transport control server defines as a first traffic, based on the calculated bandwidths at the entry edge node and the exit edge node, a traffic having a discarded bandwidth that is larger than a first predetermined bandwidth. Also, the transport control server defines as a second traffic, based on the received bandwidth information, a first traffic having a bandwidth at the two or more nodes that exceeds a specified second bandwidth.

Also, the transport control server (100) acquires from a storage unit the pre-conversion identifier, post-conversion identifier, and conversion type corresponding to two segments that are connected by the identified nodes for each of the identified nodes, and sets the acquired identifiers and conversion type to each of the nodes.
