PO-MPTCP: Priorities-Oriented Data Scheduler for Multimedia Multipathing Services

Algorithm 2

MDPS-based path information collection and sorting algorithm.

Definition:

: the th path within the MPTCP session.

: the RTT estimation value of path

: the CWND estimation value of path

: the status information for th path.

: the quality list for each path

: a preferred path list selected by MDPS

for all path within a MPTCP session do

put into

end for

for all paths within the do

all paths are sorted by values in an ascending order

if their values are same then

sort the paths in a descending order basing on their values

end if

set k =→ subflow index

put into

end for
