A network control device for generating a slice by dividing a network and allocating communication resources to the slice, the slice being a virtual network, the network control device including: a processor; and a memory to store a program which, when executed by the processor, performs processes of: obtaining and holding resource information from a network device included in the network, the resource information including information on a maximum usage rate of communication resources allocated to a previously generated slice in at least one predetermined period; and determining, upon receiving a request for generating a new slice, whether or not the requested slice can be generated on the basis of the resource information held, wherein the resource information includes information on a maximum usage rate of communication resources, which are allocated to the previously generated slice, depending on a request delay concerning the slice in the predetermined period.
