<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the terminal unit can completing reconnection processing more quickly in the information distribution system, and to provide its program and reconnection processing method. <P>SOLUTION: The terminal unit includes a connection status detection means, a connection processing means, a connection request means, and a reception control means. The connection status detection means detects that it is needed to reconnect to other terminal unit different from a unit linked to upstream of a layered structure. If it is detected that reconnecting is needed, the connection processing means starts connection processing to other terminal unit constituting the layered structure. If it is detected that reconnecting is needed, the connection request means issues a request to a unit connected downstream for connection processing to other terminal units constituting the layered structure. If connection processing of the unit connected downstream is completed before connection processing by the connection processing means is completed, the reception control means receives information, assuming that the unit linked to the downstream is an upstream unit. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT</p> |
