Hello,

I was browsing the net for information and came accross your page. Well i am first year PhD student at the
university of essex doing reasearch in video networking. I have a problem with event scheduling preferably within threads.

Below is aschematic  of what i want to do.
 

|   |   |   |   |   |   |   |                 |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |                       |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |
|   Encoder       |  ----->|  ROUTER     |-------->| DECODER   |
|   |   |   |   |   |   |   |                 |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |                       |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |

THe encoder is an mpeg1 transcoder which generates packets which are

then enqueued at the router (a buffer of packets). Packets are then

supposed to dequeued from the router at a constant rate regardless

of the queue rate. That is my problem.

How to generate the dequeue event using fast timers using. I tried using

threads with "sleep" but that does not work.

Any ideas will be appreciated. Thank you.

Emmanuel
