Abstract
A load-balanced network architecture is disclosed in which a traffic flow deliverable from a source node to a destination node via intermediate nodes is split into parts, and the parts are distributed to respective ones of the intermediate nodes. Path delay differences for the parts are substantially equalized by delay adjustment at one or more of the intermediate nodes, and packets of one or more of the parts are scheduled for routing from respective ones of the intermediate nodes to the destination node based on arrival times of the packets at the source node.
