Abstract

This invention makes it possible to link separately employed pagers, PHS, and other data terminals with computer networks such as the Internet, and to schedule transfer of data to the data terminals. In a system for transferring message to pagers from user terminals connected to the Internet, a user terminal indicates to a transmission server the time for message transfer, and the transmission server, using a code conversion table, converts the message to the code adapted to the particular pager service provider and pager terminal, and transmits the message to the pager terminal at the indicated time.
