A method of reconfiguring a network including a plurality of sub-networks
in which at least one slave terminal is wireless-linked with a master
terminal is disclosed. Firstly, each terminal detects a wireless-linkable
node. Secondly, detection information including the results of the
detections in the terminals is generated. Thirdly, with reference to the
generated detection information, a master terminal is selected in such a
manner as to minimize the total number of the master terminals. Finally,
a sub-network including the selected master terminal is constructed.
