Abstract

A method for use by one peer of peer wireless interfaces devices of a wireless communication device to cooperatively provide wireless communications in a multiple wireless communication environment with other peers of the peer wireless interface devices begins by initiating an atomic sequence of a plurality of atomic sequences. The processing continues by setting a priority level corresponding to the atomic sequence to produce a corresponding priority level. The processing continues by sensing priority level of at least one of the other peers to produce a sensed priority level. The processing continues by comparing the sensed priority level with the corresponding priority level. The processing then continues by performing at least a portion of the atomic sequence when the comparing of the sensed priority level with the corresponding priority level is favorable.
