ABSTRACT:
A modified leaky-bucket method for a message transmission system wherein a message cell stream is asynchronously transmitted, this message cell stream carrying message cells for a plurality of virtual connections with a broad range of possible message cell rates, the message cell rate for every virtual connection is being monitored and limited according to a leaky-bucket method, the shortest allowable, timing between two message cells belonging to the same virtual connection being represented by the quotient of two numbers.
