ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for controlling a communication between plural host computers connected to terminal apparatus. The communication controlling apparatus includes a storage unit for storing information relating to upper apparatus names, information relating to program names and information relating to pseudo program names. The communication controlling apparatus also includes a control unit for receiving information relating to a pseudo program name transmitted from a lower apparatus, obtaining from the information stored in the storage unit information relating to an upper apparatus name corresponding to the information relating to the pseudo program name, converting the information relating to the pseudo program name into information relating to a corresponding program name on the basis of the information stored in the storage unit, and transmitting the information relating to the converted program name to an upper apparatus corresponding to the information relating to the obtained upper apparatus name, thereby controlling a communication between the upper apparatus and the lower apparatus. Even if plural host computers store programs having identical names, the terminal apparatus can be connected to a desired host computer, whereby a service to the users may be improved.
