Communication apparatus, communication method, and computer-readable record medium with communication program
First Claim
1. A communication apparatus which transmits and receives data to and from another communication apparatus, via a communication medium, comprising:
- a transmission-request data creating means for creating transmission request data which includes data type information that indicates a transmission destination of transmission data to be transmitted and whether or not a response should be made to the transmission data;
a communication-medium type-information storing means for storing communication-medium type information that indicates the type of the communication medium;
a communication mediation processing means for mediating the timing in transmitting the transmission data, based on the data type information which is included in the transmission request data that is created by the transmission-request data creating means and the communication-medium type information which is stored in the type-information storing means; and
a data transmitting means for transmitting the transmission data according to the timing which is mediated by the communication mediation processing means.

Abstract
A communication apparatus, a communication method, and a computer-readable record medium where a communication program is recorded, are provided which are capable of making communication more reliable. In this apparatus: an application processing section creates transmission request data which includes data type information that indicates the transmission destination of transmission data to be transmitted and whether or not a response should be made to the transmission data; a communication-medium processing section stores communication-medium type information that indicates the type of the communication medium; a communication mediation processing section mediates the timing in transmitting the transmission data, based on the data type information which is included in the transmission request data that is created by the transmission-request data creating means and the communication-medium type information which is stored in the communication-medium processing section; and a data transmission processing section transmits the transmission data according to the timing which is mediated by the communication mediation processing section.
