Abstract
The present invention provides a method and system for regulating bandwidth by regulating data transmission between a transmission station and a receiving station at an application level. By regulating bandwidth at the application level, there is no need for complicated network programming required at a low level, such as the device level, whenever changes to the bandwidth need to be made. As such, bandwidth can be easily regulated and customised without having to carry out complicated network programming.
Claims16
A method for regulating bandwidth by regulating data transmission between a transmission station and a receiving station at an application level, each of the transmission station and the receiving station having a communication library, the method comprising:
- requesting configuration information from the receiving station communication library;
- configuring the transmission station communication library based on the configuration information requested from the receiving station communication library;
- and
- establishing connection between the transmission station communication library and the receiving station communication library for transmitting data,
- wherein data is transmitted from the transmission station to the receiving station based on the configured transmission station communication library to thereby regulate bandwidth.
A system for regulating bandwidth by regulating data transmission at an application level comprising:
- a transmission station having a transmission station communication library;
- and
- a receiving station having a receiving station communication library, the receiving station communication library in communication with the transmission station communication library,
- wherein data is transmitted from the transmission station to the receiving station and data transmission is regulated by the transmission station communication library and the receiving station communication library to thereby regulate bandwidth.
A system for regulating bandwidth by regulating data transmission at an application level comprising:
- a transmission station having a transmission station communication library;
- and
- a receiving station having a receiving station communication library, the receiving station communication library in communication with the transmission station communication library,
- wherein the transmission station communication library performs the steps of:
- requesting configuration information from the receiving station communication library;
- configuring the transmission station communication library based on the configuration information requested from the receiving station communication library;
- and
- establishing connection between the transmission station communication library and the receiving station communication library for transmitting data,
- wherein data is transmitted from the transmission station to the receiving station based on the configured transmission station communication library to thereby regulate bandwidth.
