Abstract

Transactions are received through at least two input channels, each transaction comprising one or more data packets. The data packets are placed in a single data queue. When a first transaction received through one input channel comprises more than one data packet, a data packet of a second transaction received through another input channel is permitted to be placed in the single data queue between data packets of the first transaction. A block of space in a data output queue is assigned to each transaction. Each data packet is placed in the block assigned to its transaction.
