<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a user to know at a glance a utilized state inside a home network. <P>SOLUTION: A home network agent 101 uses internal bus bands and/or storage capacities of a double tuner TV 106 and file servers 104 and 105 and throughputs of 1 or above of a LAN 102 as resources, and handles at least either of programmed recording of AV content from the double-tuner TV 106 to the file servers 104 and 105 and/or transfer of AV content between the file servers 104 and 105 as its job. The job is a set of tasks which use the resources, and an approximate solution is found out wherein each task is so arranged as to satisfy constrained conditions given to each task. The constrained conditions of each task arranged as the approximate solution are written to the job to generate a table of programmed recording, which is to be displayed to a user. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
