PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce traffic on a LAN by decreasing opportunity of frame transfer to the LAN.;SOLUTION: In a LAN 1 adopting a CSMA/CD system where a server computer 2, a 1st client computer 3, a 2nd client computer 4 and other 3rd, 4th client computers are connected, when the 1st client computer 3 issues a transmission request A of an object to the server computer 2 and receives an object A in response to the transmission request A from the server 2, the 2nd client 4 stores the transmission request A and the object A in response thereto to a storage section 41 in the 2nd client 4. When the 2nd client 4 issues the transmission request A to obtain the same object A stored in the storage section 41 to the server 2, the 2nd client 4 directly acquires the object A from the storage section 41 not via the LAN 1.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2000,JPO
