Abstract: A control communication system and a plasma processing apparatus for efficient utilization of a computer resource and a communication resource such as a storage area. A control communication system includes a control communication apparatus that includes a communication unit configured to transmit a packet including control data and in which the communication unit includes a plurality of ports, and a plurality of device groups that are communicably connected to the plurality of communication ports and are operated according to the received packet. The control data is generated toward a target communication port among the plurality of communication ports, the target communication port being determined based on information of a communication port that transmits the packet. The packet includes a packet data area in which the control data is arranged, and is transmitted from the target communication port to the device group connected to the target communication port.

Abstract: A distributed control system includes a tree topology network or a daisy-chain network including a communication parent station, communication child stations, and a plurality of communication paths among the communication parent station and the communication child stations, in which the communication parent station and the communication child stations include a scheduling unit that controls a transfer cycle that is temporal intervals of data transfer. The scheduling unit sets the transfer cycle that is the fastest out of a plurality of the data as a reference cycle, counts the number of times each time the reference cycle elapses, and imparts a value of the number of times to the reference cycle as a cycle number. When the cycle number reaches an optional number, the number of times is returned to an initial value, which makes one cycle of transfer control, and the transfer control is repeatedly executed.
