Abstract
A transport for data communication can be selected based on current data communication activity. A master device and a slave device can establish a control channel on one transport and one or more data channels. A master device can determine which transport should be used for the data channel(s) based on real-time status information about the data exchange and can coordinate with the slave device to switch the data channel(s) to a different transport when appropriate.
