Packet scheduler

A packet scheduler is a piece of software that determines how to prioritise which packets are sent across a network from a client computer. One important example of a packet scheduler is the QoS Packet Scheduler that comes with Microsoft operating systems such as Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
