<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a content distribution system which prevents the deterioration of quality of content due to concentrated content requests to one node device from a plurality of node devices. <P>SOLUTION: In an information distribution system S which is provided with a plurality of node devices connected to one another by means of a constructed network, a root node device, having the location of content, determines a communication congestion degree representing local communication concentration in a content node device 1h which stores the content. When the communication to the device 1h is congested, the root node device transmits an IP address, which represents an information part storage node device 1z storing only the already received part of the content, to request node devices 1j and 1f which transmits the content request information. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
