CA 2484427

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for scheduling items (e.g., packets, processes, etc.) in a system, such as, but not limited to a computer or communications system. In one implementation, multiple sets of items requiring processing to be performed are maintained. A current set of the multiple sets of items is identified. Each of the items in the current set is processed. In one implementation, this processing includes identifying a particular item in the current set, adding a quantum to a deficit of the particular item, processing an entity corresponding to the particular item, decreasing the deficit of the particular item by a value, determining if the deficit allows the particular item to be further processed, and moving the particular item from the current set to another of the multiple sets of items after said determining if the deficit allows the particular item to be further processed.

L'invention porte sur des procédés et sur un appareil servant à organiser dans le temps des éléments (paquets, traitements, etc.) d'un système tel que, mais pas exclusivement, un système informatique ou de communications. Selon un mode de mise en oeuvre, on tient à jour plusieurs jeux d'éléments exigeant un traitement à venir; on identifie parmi l'ensemble des jeux d'éléments un jeu que l'on prend comme jeu courant dont chaque élément est mis en traitement. Selon un autre mode de mise en oeuvre, ce traitement consiste à identifier un élément particulier du jeu courant, ajouter un quantum à un déficit de l'élément particulier, traiter toute entité correspondant à l'élément particulier, faire diminuer d'une valeur le déficit de l'élément particulier, déterminer si le déficit permet de traiter ensuite l'élément particulier et faire passer l'élément particulier du jeu courant vers un autre jeu de la pluralité de jeux d'éléments après avoir déterminé si le déficit permet de traiter ensuite l'élément particulier.
