Abstract
A system and a process arranges equitable-loss data packets in a high-volume asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) system and establishes the output order of the packets. There are a plurality of inflowing data packet streams, a minimum quantity r of each incoming flow being reserved. At all times, there is a ratio K(t) between two parts of each incoming data packet flow. One part is a quantity of packets &Dgr;x (t) allocated above the minimum reserve quantity r . The other part e (t) is an instantaneous quantity &Dgr;x (t) above the minimum reserve quantity r .
