<p>A method for transmitting data over a network in which multiple transmission conditions can be used for transmitting data, each transmission condition being associated with a rating indicative of how successful previous data transmissions using that transmission condition have been, the method comprising using a selected transmission condition when transmitting data over the network and updating the rating associated with the selected transmission condition in dependence on the success of that transmission, updating the ratings associated with the transmission conditions other than the selected transmission condition by adjusting each of those ratings by a predetermined amount and selecting a transmission condition in dependence on the updated ratings.</p> |
