摘要:
A communication conditions determination method, a communication conditions determination system, and a determination apparatus are provided in which the conditions of communication which is performed through a plurality of communication networks are determined without setting up a special apparatus on all the communication networks and without increasing the existing traffic. In a first communication network 100 and a second communication network 200 which are connected by a first connection apparatus 1 such as a router, a determination is made as to whether the source of a packet passed through the second communication network 200 is the first connection apparatus 1 or an apparatus other than the first connection apparatus 1. Packets whose respective sources are the first connection apparatus 1 and packets whose respective sources are an apparatus other than the first connection apparatus 1 are individually summarized. By comparing summarized results, the communication conditions are determined.

When simulating communication using a communication network such as a VoIP network, an actual communication state is accurately simulated, and communication is simulated. The distribution of delay times of packets is transformed by a predetermined transformation method, packet transmission timings to which delay times are added, are calculated based on the transformed distribution of delay times and predetermined transmission timings, a determination is made as to whether or not the packet transmission order is changed by the calculated transmission timings to which delay times are added, and, when a determination is made that the packet transmission order is changed, packet transmission timings adjusted so as not to cause a change in the transmission order are derived.

The present invention provides a communication assistance process that is performed by a communication assistance device connected to a plurality of user terminals via a network. During a communication (or video) conference call, when assistance data associated with a topic in the conference is provided to a plurality of user terminals in the form of a voice data, the communication assistance process adjusts the sound volume of voice data in the assistance data if it was determined that voice data is included in the communication data received from the plurality of user terminals, and if voice data is also included in the assistance data, the assistance data that includes sound volume adjusted voice data is then provided to the plurality of user terminals. Accordingly, the communication assistance process allows communications in a conference system to proceed smoothly.

The traffic load density measuring system includes a transmitter connected to a communication network for transmitting a packet, and a receiver for receiving the packet, in which a packet for load density detection is transmitted and received to measure a traffic load density within a predetermined transmission interval. The transmitter changes a transmission interval of the packet for load density detection, and adds transmission information capable of specifying a transmission time, a transmission interval, and a transmission number of the packet for load density detection to the packet for load density detection to transmit said packet. The receiver receives the packet for load density detection, extracts the transmission information from the packet for load density detection being received, and measures the load density within the predetermined transmission interval based on the extracted transmission information, and a delay or a lost status of the packet for load density detection.

A computer-readable recording medium recording a program capable of accurately analyzing the cause of a performance fault at the very end point of a client system, server system, etc. Outgoing and incoming packets are captured during execution of a communication application to measure a round trip time, and a communication window size of the transmitting source is estimated based on the captured incoming packets. A throughput estimate is calculated from the round trip time and the communication window size, and the estimated value and actual measured value of the throughput are displayed on, for example, a display, together with various other communication parameters including the communication window size and the round trip time, whereby the cause of a performance fault can be accurately located by quantitative analysis.
