Network Resource Management Device

Abstract

The present invention introduces a plurality of resource management devices (M1)-(M4). Each resource management device comprises a resource reservation information transmitting unit (205) and a resource reservation information receiving unit (206). Thus, even when one of the resource management devices is inactivated, the resource management can be continued. Since reserved resource information is shared among a plurality of resource management devices, if exist, the resource management can be performed without contradiction. Processing load can be decentralized by processing a resource reservation request by the plurality of resource management devices.
