A converter for converting an application program that is executed for every job request into a batch processing program for collectively processing a plurality of job requests. The converter includes: a code identifier for identifying a portion of the application program that includes a service request to another server, and a portion that does not include a service request; an integration unit for converting the service request into a collective service request that collectively issues a plurality of service requests corresponding to the plurality of job requests; a multiplexing unit for converting the processing code in the application program into a multiplexed code for executing multiple processings corresponding to the plurality of job requests; and an output unit for outputting, as the batch processing program, the application program that the integration unit and the multiplexing unit have processed.
