A sound treatment system includes an audio system for transmitting tones of predetermined frequencies through a plurality of outputs. The various embodiments include a plurality of heterogeneous computational elements coupled to an interconnection network. By controlling in this manner, the ion frequency when the ion passes through the inside of the mass spectrometry unit 4 is increased as the mass number of an ion becomes higher, and therefore, it is possible to obtain the mass spectrum with higher resolution. Relative time is mapped to the timeline of the virtual real-time clock as it is received from the second system. Furthermore, an associated method is also provided. Responsive to a characteristic of the call placed by the first party, a second communication service provider is selected to carry the call between the application and the second party.
