To realize a state in which a decrease in throughput at one place does not affect other transmission destinations while preventing CPU load from becoming high. The present technology can be applied to a multiple point distribution system that transmits a video stream to a plurality of transmission destinations by using a transport protocol having a congestion control mechanism, such as TCP. A transmission terminal transmits the video stream in the same thread (first thread) with respect to receiving terminals A and C in which throughput is sufficient, and transmits the video stream in another thread (second thread) with respect to a receiving terminal B in which throughput has decreased. As a result of adopting such a transmission method, a decrease in throughput for the receiving terminal B does not affect transmission to the receiving terminals A and C. Furthermore, transmission is not performed to the receiving terminals A, B, and C in mutually different threads, and an increase in the number of threads, thus, an increase in CPU load, can be suppressed. |
