Abstract
A communication device assigns a key taking the degree of priority of applications into account in a case where a key generation/sharing system in which a plurality of applications are connected to a node is not able to realize key assignment that satisfies the key rates requested by the plurality of applications. For example, the device realizes a method of assigning an application key that takes the degree of priority into account according to which control is performed in such a way that the key rate requested by an important application is preferentially satisfied.
