Abstract
A computer system for transmitting packets includes a manager and scheduling elements for managing the transmission of the packets over one or more logical channels. The computer system can prioritize the transmission of packets based on the type of traffic and maintain quality of service (QoS) characteristics associated with a logical channel. In addition, the computer system can execute a threading process to ensure the efficient and timely transmission of certain types of packets without using any complex mathematical operations.
