The invention relates to a method for transmitting messages in a computer network and a corresponding computer network. A first group of components is provided, wherein the components of the first group transmit and/or forward and/or receive messages via one or more wired connection(s) (110), wherein each component of the first group is either a computer node (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, X108), a star coupler (201, 203, 205, 207, 210, 211, X201), or a star coupler of a multi-hop network (1000), and wherein a second group of components is provided, wherein the components of the second group transmit and/or forward and/or receive messages via one or more wireless connections (110a, 110b, 110c, 110d), wherein each component of the second group is either a computer node (107, 108, X107, X109) or a star coupler (201, 210, 211, X201, X202), and wherein each component of the first and the second group has a local clock, and wherein the clocks of the components of the first and the second groups are synchronized to each other or are synchronized with each other, and wherein the components of the first and the second groups transmit and/or forward and/or receive messages coordinated according to a common communication schedule. |
