Claim 0:
1. A semiconductor apparatus that selects a packet from a plurality of packets stored in a buffer and transfers the packet,
the semiconductor apparatus being configured to:
select, among a plurality of extraction patterns, a first extraction pattern at a selection ratio according to priorities set one for each the plurality of extraction patterns, the plurality of extraction patterns being defined to extract, based on information of one or more types included in a plurality of types, one or more packets from the plurality of packets stored in the buffer, the information of one or more types being selected from among a plurality of pieces of information of the plurality of types, the plurality of pieces of information being obtained for each of the plurality of packets and being different from one another;
select a first packet from one or more packets extracted in the first selected extraction pattern according to a given selecting scheme, and transfer the first packet from the buffer;
select a second extraction pattern among the plurality of extraction patterns according to the selection ratio, the second extraction pattern extracting, based on information of one or more types being included in the plurality of types and being different from the information used by the first extraction pattern, one or more packets from the plurality of packets stored in the buffer; and
select a second packet from one or more packets extracted in the second extraction pattern according to the given selecting scheme, and transfer the second packet from the buffer.
