ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method for transmitting data in packet switching networks provides a Collision-Eliminating Multiple Access protocol in which nodes desiring to transmit over the network channel trans- mit reservation requests during a plurality of contention slots, the number of contention slots being dynamically controlled according to network load. A node designated to next obtain con- trol of the channel receives the identifiers of nodes trans- mitting reservation requests and, prior to transmitting applica- tion data, transmits network control data consisting of the identifiers of nodes from whom successful reservation requests were successfully received. The transmitted identifiers are re- ceived and stored by each node in an identical queue, whereby subsequent control of the channel is rotated based on the order of node identifiers appearing an identical queue on each node. The transmitted network control data includes reservation re- quests received during a previous contention slot period, queue correction informtion, and the identifiers of nodes from which the controlling node expects to receive data. -59-
