ABSTRACT:
A data communications or distribution loop has a plurality of computer stations each of which introduces a delay while it examines the header of each circulating packet or block of data. An elastic synchronizing buffer, including a random-access memory, is included in the loop to introduce a delay which, when added to the delays introduced by the stations, equals the period of a packet. The delay introduced by the buffer is automatically adjusted as stations are added to, or removed from, the loop.
