In a plasma processing apparatus; a refrigerant flow passage being formed in the sample table and constituting an evaporator of a cooling cycle and the in-plane temperature of the sample to be processed is controlled uniformly by controlling the enthalpy of the refrigerant supplied to the refrigerant flow passage and thereby keeping the flow mode in the refrigerant flow passage, namely in the sample table, in the state of a gas-liquid two-phase. If by any chance dry out of the refrigerant occurs in the refrigerant flow passage because the heat input of plasma increases with time or by another reason, it is possible to increase speed of a compressor and inhibit the dry out from occurring in the refrigerant flow passage. Further, if the refrigerant supplied to the refrigerant flow passage is liquefied, it is kept in the gas-liquid two-phase state.

When a network composed of usual switches on a communication route exists, in the network, a QoS control cannot be carried out to a user. Specifically, the switch receives a packet and issues a notice to an external controller and a user authenticating section of the controller determines a QoS policy of a flow. When a plurality of networks exists on the route, a route calculating section selects a route based on the QoS policy and topology data so as to pass through an appropriate network. A flow table generating section generates a flow table which carries out queuing based on the QoS policy and a marking of a DSCP value to a DS field of a header when transmitting a packet to the selected network, and registers the flow table for the round-trip on the switch.
