A protocol high-speed processing method to be used in a first communication control equipment for communications with a second communication equipment connected through a transmission line in accordance with a predetermined communication protocol. The communication control equipment predicts the type of communication frame to be received next from the communication line, in accordance with type of communication frame previously transmitted to or received from said transmission line, and prepares information necessary for a process of receiving said predicted communication frame and information of a part of the communication frame to be transmitted subsequent to the receiving process, to await the reception of a next communication frame. As a result, the receiving process time and the response process time can be reduced when the actually received communication frame is consistent with the predicted one.

Communication protocol for predicting communication frame type in

There is a communication system comprising: an integrated services digital network (ISDN) having a plurality of information channels (Bch) and at least one control channel (Dch); a CPU (host computer) connected to said ISDN through a communication control processor (CCP); and a plurality of packet terminals connected to the ISDN. In the communication system, when a call request from the CPU or an incoming call request from one of the packet terminals is input to the CCP, if the B channel data link connection or the D channel data link connection for the packets has already been established between the CCP and the ISDN, the CCP selects the channel data link connection as a channel for communication with the packet terminal and multiplexes a plurality of calls to the same channel even if the other space B channels exist.

Data link control method and system for integrated services digital

Herein disclosed is a communication network, in which two terminal nodes transmit and receive messages containing a destination node discriminator and a source node discriminator by way of a communication route composed of at least one relay node and a plurality of information links connecting the terminal nodes and the relay node. In this communication network, the relay node is stored in advance, in accordance with the combination of a destination node and a source node, with both the information link for transmitting the messages received and the flag information indicating the establishment of the communication route from said source node to the relay node itself. When any of the terminal nodes designates the other terminal node as the destination node and transmits the control message for the communication route establishment to the destination node, the relay node having received the control message sets the flag information, which corresponds to the combination of the source node and the destination node, in a state indicating the link establishment, and transmits said received message to said information link in case the information link corresponding to said combination is in the connected state. The relay node on the communication route transmits the control message to an adjacent node, when it detects the state change of the adjacent information link, under a condition that the flag information corresponding to said information link is in the set state.
