ABSTRACT:
Resources possessed by a computer are registered in a resource table. A resource supply judging portion, in answer to a resource utilization request generated in its own computer or the computer in the preceding stage, judges whether or not it is possible to supply the resource from its own computer by reference to the resource table. When the resource is judged suppliable in the judgment, a resource supplier brings the corresponding resource into a utilizable state. A utilization request transmitter, when the resource was judged unsuppliable, transmits the resource utilization request to the computer in the following stage and, at the same time, sets up a resource supply path. With the described arrangement, utilization of a resource of another computer is made possible without having resources managed by a plurality of computers in a centralized manner. Further, dependence of an executed application program on the resource status is lowered and adaptability thereof to a change in the resource status is improved.
