ABSTRACT:
Acknowledgement packets and data packets of multiple streams are reordered for transmission in order to gain good overall utilization of both uploading and downloading links. Durations of various packets in a transmit queue may evaluated to determine whether a later packet in the transmit queue can be transmitted ahead of an earlier packet in the transmit queue. A relative acknowledgement priority parameter for a node effectively tunes the amount of transmit bandwidth available to increase acknowledgment transmissions and therefore increase the node's receive rate from another node.
