Embodiments are directed to intelligent scheduling of Wi-Fi services for applications. An embodiment of computer-readable storage mediums includes instructions for receiving data packets from multiple connected devices at a wireless access point and identifying an application traffic flow for each data packet; assigning each data packet to a respective queue of a first set of queues based on an identified application traffic flow for each data packet; selecting data packets from the first set of queues based on priorities for each of multiple applications; generating prioritized candidate lists for selected data packets in a second set of queues, each queue being dedicated for an access category for one or more application; and scheduling data packets from the candidate lists, including selecting a transmission mode for each access category based on characteristics of the one or more applications.

Technologies for remote direct memory access (RDMA) queue pair quality of service (QoS) management are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, several queue pairs associated with a virtual machine on a compute sled may be created in a network interface controller of the compute sled. A QoS parameter such as a class of service identifier or a weighting may be assigned to each queue pair such that each queue pair has a different available bandwidth. The compute sled may also predict future RDMA queue pair bandwidth usage and adjust RDMA queue pair bandwidth allocation based on the prediction.

A radio reception apparatus and the like capable of eliminating a pseudo reception error while minimizing a change in a frame format are provided. A radio reception apparatus 30 according to the present disclosure includes: a receiving unit 301 configured to receive a frame from a radio transmission apparatus 20; a determination unit 302 configured to determine, using the frame received from the radio transmission apparatus 20, whether or not transmission of a preceding frame that has been received from the radio transmission apparatus 20 before receiving of the frame has been interrupted; and an error processing unit 306 configured to eliminate a reception error regarding the preceding frame in accordance with a determination that the transmission of the preceding frame has been interrupted.

A method for transmitting data packets is provided, which comprises, during a current transmission cycle in a plurality of successive time cycles, the current cycle comprising a plurality of successive time periods: obtaining one or several first data packets, respective first metadata of the one or several first data packets, and a first transmission priority associated with the one or several first data packets, wherein the one or several first data packets are stored in a memory of a processor; based on the first transmission priority, adding the first metadata to a first waiting queue in the memory of the processor; during a first time period of the current transmission cycle reserved for transmission of data packets associated with the first priority, transfer the first metadata from the first waiting queue to an interface transmission queue, wherein the interface transmission queue is comprised in a data communication interface between the processor and a MAC controller; and transmit the one or several first data packets over a transmission medium through the transfer, based on the first metadata in the interface transmission queue, of the one or several first data packets from the memory to a transmission queue in the MAC controller.

A terminal (20) includes a transmission control unit (203). The transmission control unit (20) sets a plurality of LL transmission queues (113_LL1, 113_LL2, 113_LL3), into each of which is input low latency data, regarding which latency conditions relating to latency are stricter than predetermined latency conditions. The latency conditions demanded of the low latency data that is input are different from each other among the plurality of LL transmission queues (113_LL1, 113_LL2, 113_LL3).

A transmitter can manage when a transmit queue is permitted to transmit and an amount of data permitted to be transmitted. After a transmit queue is permitted to transmit, the transmit queue can be placed in a sleep state if the transmit queue has exceeded its permitted data transmission quota. The wake time of the transmit queue can be scheduled based on a token accumulation rate for the transmit queue. The token accumulation rate can be increased if the transmit queue has other data to transmit after the data transmission. The token accumulation rate can be decreased if the transmit does not have other data to transmit.

The present disclosure generally relates to a device, method, or system for time sensitive networking. In an example, the device can include a time-sensitive networking controller and a scheduler. The device also includes an enhanced gate control list maintained on the time-sensitive networking controller to include a direct memory access address, a launch time, and a pre-fetch time for a data packet. The device may also include a transmitter of the time-sensitive networking controller to transmit the data packet retrieved using the direct memory access address at the launch time identified by the scheduler.

An identification unit analyzes a received packet and identifies a network slice to which the received packet belongs and a class in QoS. A group of queues includes a plurality of queue groups associated with the plurality of network slices. Each queue group includes a plurality of queues associated with a plurality of classes in the QoS. A distribution unit distributes the received packet to a queue according to an analysis result of the received packet. Each data transfer unit acquires the received packet from the queue associated with each class of the associated queue group, and performs packet transfer processing according to the QoS on the acquired received packet.

A queue scheduling method, apparatus, and system are provided, to flexibly manage a queue, meet an actual transmission requirement, and reduce resources. The queue scheduling method implemented by a processing apparatus includes: generating an HQoS scheduling tree including a plurality of leaf nodes, each of which identifies a queue on a traffic management (TM) hardware entity including a plurality of queues; obtaining traffic characteristics of the plurality of queues based on the plurality of leaf nodes; determining a scheduling parameter of at least one queue in the plurality of queues based on the traffic characteristics which are of data flows transmitted by the plurality of queues; sending to a scheduling apparatus a scheduling message corresponding to the at least one queue in the TM hardware entity, including the scheduling parameter of the at least one queue used to schedule the at least one queue.
