Communication control device, communication control system, and communication control method

A communication control system comprising a communication control device, a plurality of terminal devices, and a processing execution device, wherein

• each of the terminal devices includes:
• an acquisition unit that repeatedly acquires notification information, and
• a transmitter that transmits the notification information acquired by the acquisition unit to the communication control device,
• the processing execution device executes predetermined processing using the pieces of notification information transmitted from the respective terminal devices, and
• the communication control device includes:
• a processor configured to:
• acquire the pieces of notification information from the respective terminal devices, and
• detect a specific connectible terminal device,
• determine whether connection of the specific terminal device is reconnection,
• calculate, when the connection is not the reconnection, digitalized values of influences of the respective pieces of notification information acquired from the respective terminal devices on the predetermined processing on the basis of the pieces of notification information already acquired and select a terminal device on the basis of the calculated digitalized values of the influences,
• calculate, when the connection is the reconnection, a specific digitalized value of the influence of the notification that is acquired from the specific terminal device on the predetermined processing on the basis of the notification information already acquired in a past connection period and select the terminal device using the specific value, and
• stand by for acquisition of the notification information from the selected terminal device and establish connection with the specific terminal device.
