Abstract
An arbitration-type call establishing system comprising a plurality of user systems and a connection control system. The user systems each include means for transmitting the arbitration conditions including the desired other party to connect and the desired other party to permit a connection request, to a connection control system through a data network. The connection control system includes a reception processing unit for receiving the arbitration conditions, an information holding unit for holding for each user the user information constituting the personal information of users and the arbitration conditions, an arbitration processing unit for arbitrating between combinations of users satisfying the arbitration conditions while referring to the user information, and a connection execution unit for establishing a voice communication call between the user systems of the users established by arbitration in the arbitration processing unit, through a voice communication network, whereby an arbitration between the intentions of the two user parties can be performed in such a manner as to accurately reflect the intention of the users to be connected.
