1. A data transmission system for improving the streaming of data between a sender and at least one receiver over a connection link, whereinthe sender is configured to change the format of the data to be sent by segmenting and encapsulating the data into packets of a maximum size, and identifying each packet with a message number, wherein a transmit rate of the sender is adjusted according to the throughput bandwidth of the link so as to avoid congesting the link;

  • andthe receiver is configured to re-assemble the packets based upon the message number allocated to each packet, and re-create the data in the original format for being read by standard applications.
