Abstract

A system, method, and computer readable medium for strict priority weighted round robin scheduling includes selecting a set of bandwidth allocation table filled entries having a common destination address, each filled entry associated with a received data packet and determining a scheduling weight for each bandwidth allocation table entry in the selected set, the scheduling weight determined first by a priority and then by an assigned weight.
