A transfer module transfers transmission target information on a predetermined transfer path including an information processing apparatus. This target transfer module appends transfer environment information indicating a degree of influence placed by the target transfer module on an information transfer result of the transmission target information transferred to the information processing apparatus and including at least one of module internal information about a transfer environment for the transmission target information in the transfer module or module surrounding information about a transfer environment associated with a surrounding of the target transfer module excluding an upstream transfer module to predetermined transmission information including the transmission target information received from the upstream transfer module to generate new predetermined transmission information, and transmits the new predetermined transmission information to a downstream transfer module.
