An information processing apparatus having unique information connected to a network together with a plurality of other information processing apparatuses each connected to the network and each having unique information is provided. The apparatus receives unique information for identifying all of the information processing apparatuses on the network, and obtains a network structure of the network based upon the unique information of all of the information processing apparatuses. The apparatus counts a number of connections between all of the information processing apparatuses on the network based upon the network structure, and controls the communication timing of the information apparatuses on the network based upon the number of connections. The apparatus obtains a topology map of the network based upon the unique information of each of the information processing apparatuses. The apparatus stores the topology map, stores the appropriate timings corresponding to number of the connections, and controls the communication timing.
