ABSTRACT:
In a congestion control system for congestion controlling communications on a network, a congestion control node has a congestion detection part for detecting a congestion level of the communications in the congestion control node in question and a congestion notifying part for notifying other congestion control nodes on the network of congestion information detected by the congestion detection part. The congestion control node further has a part for receiving the congestion information from the other congestion control nodes and a congestion flow estimating part for estimating, with reference to the congestion information and a routing table for designating a transfer path to destination, a flow having the congestion level that is not less than a predetermined level in the transfer path to the destination.
