<p>A method and system for intelligent acknowledgment-based flow control in a processing system network. A management circuit (510) governs transmission of data packets (205) and reception indicia by a transmission circuit (515) over a network (100). Detector circuitry (540) is included and is operative to: (a) monitor a first latency characteristic of the network (100) being indicative, at least in part, of a utilization level of the network (100); and (b) monitor a second latency characteristic being indicative, at least in part, of an efficiency level associated with transmission of the reception indicia by the transmission circuit (515). Control circuitry (545) is also included and is operative to: (a) adjust a retransmission delay of data packets (205) over the network (100) as a function of the first latency characteristic, thereby allowing the management circuit (510) to manage the retransmission delay as a function of the utilization level of said network (100); and (b) adjust a transmission delay of reception indicia over the network (100) as a function of the second latency characteristic to thereby allow the management circuit (510) to manage the transmission delay as a function of the efficiency level associated with the transmission circuit (515). <IMAGE></p> |
