Abstract
A data communication apparatus includes a router, first and second packet producers, and a penalizer. The router is directly connected to the first and second producers. The penalizer assesses penalties against each producer whenever that producer is serviced. The penalty value depends at least in part on an expected extent to which the first producer requires service. The penalizer then accumulates penalties against each producer.
