Abstract

Disclosed is a method for determining a traffic priority order on a network, which is suitable for efficient data transmission by determining priority order depending on multimedia data characteristics and normal data characteristics. The method for determining a traffic priority order on a network includes the steps of detecting the traffic generating frequency and/or the size of data being transmitted between respective stations, identifying data between respective stations as multimedia data if a traffic generating frequency and/or a data size is greater than a reference value, identifying data between respective stations as normal data if a traffic generating frequency and/or data size is lower than a reference value, granting the most significant priority order to multimedia data having traffic generating frequency and/or data size greater than corresponding reference values, determining whether a destination station can receive data or not, and reading data from a memory depending on priority order and transferring data to a destination station when that station is able to receive data.
