PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a parallel processing system and the like that can increase the efficiency and speed of parallel processing by referring to a computation result, processing status and the like of a processing terminal device. SOLUTION: When a slave 7 inquires about an execution result, a computation result, data and the like in another slave 7, a master 2 refers to a processing assignment table 32 to return the execution result, computation result, data and the like corresponding to the inquiry. When a terminal device 5 inquires about the processing status and the like of requested processing, the master 2 refers to the processing assignment table 32 to return the processing status and the like corresponding to the inquiry to the terminal device. Communication between the master 2 and the slave 7 and terminal device 5 related to the inquiry and inquiry response can be broadcast communication, whereby an inquiry response function 20 of the master 2 can be arranged outside the master 2 or distributed among distributed masters 3-1, 3-2, etc. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
