Abstract
A method and apparatus for scheduling are disclosed. An apparatus for packet scheduling includes a flow type classifier configured to classify a flow by type and to allocate at least one queue to each flow type; and a scheduler configured to calculate finish times of packets in the queue and to compare finish times of HoQ packets in the queue with each other to output an HoQ packet with an earliest finish time.
Claims16
An apparatus for packet scheduling, the apparatus comprising:
- a flow type classifier configured to classify a flow by type and to allocate at least one queue to each flow type;
- and
- a scheduler configured to calculate finish times of packets in the queue and to compare finish times of HoQ packets in the queue with each other to output an HoQ packet with an earliest finish time.
A method for packet scheduling by a scheduling apparatus, the method comprising:
- classifying at least one flow by type;
- allocating at least one queue to each flow type;
- calculating a finish time of each packet in the queue;
- and
- comparing finish times of HoQ packets in the queue and transmitting a HoQ packet with an earliest finish time.
