SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT CONTROL IN A DATA TRANSMISSION NETWORK

摘要

A traffic management system sniffs data arriving at any point in a system. The sniffer operates to remember certain parameters pertaining to the data. When the amount of data arriving at the point begins to reach a critical level (usually dependent upon data processing capability associated with the point), the system begins to remove (and share) subsequent arriving data based, in part, upon the remembered parameters of recently receiving data. Data that is stored is returned to the system when the critical threshold recedes.
