Abstract
A method of transmission of at least one data content by a source node associated with a generator application to at least one destination node, each associated with a consumer application, in a communications network comprising a plurality of nodes, each being associated with an application, the network implementing a first clocking which defines a first cycle, called a network cycle, for data transmission on said network. Each node of the network implements a second clocking which defines a second cycle, called a local cycle, for data transmission between the node of the network and its associated application, the network cycle being equal to an integer multiple P, P≧1, of the local cycle, the start of the network cycle coinciding with the start of a local cycle, the local cycle comprising a plurality of virtual channels corresponding to time slots, a set of the virtual channels being assigned to the transmission of the content or contents.
