[Karen ] Yes I think that can be a good idea, but I am not sure that the
above mapping of terms is right  - or is it  ?.
I very likely can be mistaken, but with screams multiple stream view then I
have thought that the following was the case:

Scream Transmission scheduler is in fact a true transmission scheduler as it
takes packets from the multiple RTP queues and schedule the packets
(following whatever multiple-stream scheduling policy/stream priority
relevant)
for consummation of the global sending rate/the congestion window calculated
and thus transmit the packets on the UDP socket (after which they eventually
will
go to the NIC for transmission). I further had assumed that pacing
(vis-à-vis cwnv) in this design is implemented as part of the transmission
scheduler and not as part of the RTP queue logic.
This model at least corresponds to SCTP's model for scheduling of the
multiple streams for consummation of CWND and transmission.

BR, Karen
