Abstract
A communication system featuring a plurality of nodes in which at least one node is implemented with adaptive driver software following a load balancing scheme that takes into account packet characteristics associated with the data traffic load before dynamically distributing the data traffic among multiple communication channels. Of these communication channels, only one channel is allowed to receive data requests and all of the channels are allowed to transfer data packet(s) to the data requesting node.
