Abstract
The invention relates to a method implemented in a packet-switched network for scheduling transmission of Ethernet frames, where a time of a next transmission of a future time-critical traffic frame (Express frame), among several time-critical traffic frames to transmit, is determined on the basis of respective priority levels of the time-critical traffic frames. The determination of this next transmission time allows a fair timing of transmission of such time-critical traffic frames which might belong to different streams. It makes possible also to transmit, before the aforesaid next transmission time, preemptable frames of non-time-critical traffic.
