ABSTRACT:
A method for scheduling when a server provides service to entities. The method includes the steps of identifying when a first entity requests service from the server. Next there is the step of providing service to an entity, such as a first entity or a second entity, as a function of virtual time. A scheduler for controlling when a server provides service to entities. The scheduler comprises a memory having times which are a function of when entities request service from the server. The scheduler is also comprised of a virtual clock that keeps track of time. The scheduler is also comprised of a controller which causes an entity to receive service from the server as a function of virtual time. Rate can also be utilized.
