    Abstract: A relay device is provided that is provided on a first network hierarchy level and relays communications via a network hierarchy level higher than the first level, between a plurality of nodes subordinate to the relay device and a sales broker website, and includes: an application storage unit storing a sales broker application; and an application execution unit executing the sales broker application to cause the relay device to function as: an order data reception unit receiving order data including a plurality of contents; a first order data transmission unit transmitting the order data to the sales broker website; and a second order data transmission unit transmitting, when an order receiver node receiving an order for the product is any of the plurality of nodes, at least a part of the plurality of contents to the order receiver node without involving a level higher than the first level.

    Abstract: A radio-resource assignment control mode for assigning radio resources for an inter-terminal direct communication to plural UEs in a same group is appropriately selected to ensure low latency and highly reliable inter-terminal direct communications in the same group. A radio-resource assignment control mode for assigning the radio resources for the inter-terminal direct communication of the plural UEs 20 belonging to a group can be selected from a first mode in which a base station assigns radio resources for inter-terminal direct communication and a second mode in which any one of plural UEs assigns radio resources for inter-terminal direct communication. A base station 10 confirms whether or not all UEs in a group are located in a cell of the base station 10 and are in a synchronized state in which a radio connection setup with the base station 10 is completed and the synchronization with the base station 10, and transmits resource control information for inter-terminal direct communication including a first mode allowable message allowing an operation in the first mode, to the plural UEs, in case that all UEs in the group are confirmed to be in the synchronized state with the base station 10.
