A communication method for transmitting a data packet from a first node to a second node connected by an interconnection network. Steps performed include sending a data packet from the first node to the second node, sending an acknowledgment message from the second node to the first node within an acknowledgement generation delay period (Dack) upon reception of the data packet, determining at the first node whether no acknowledgment message is received during a time-out period (Tp), where the acknowledgement generation delay period (Dack) is related to the time-out period (Tp), and adapting the time-out period (Tp) depending on a network load indicating an amount of traffic over the connection between the first and the second node.
