Claim 7:
8. A method for rescheduling an asynchronous first device in communication with an asynchronous second device, wherein the time for the first device to complete a processing cycle is a first device major frame; and wherein the first device major frame comprises a first device dedicated processing time slot at the end of the first device major frame; the method comprising:
sending a rescheduling signal to the second device on completion of a first device major frame; and
monitoring, during the dedicated processing time slot, for a rescheduling signal sent from the second device to the first device;
if a rescheduling signal from the second device is received:
shifting the end of the current first device major frame by a set duration to result in a rescheduled first device major frame;
rescheduling each of the subsequent first device major frames such that each subsequent rescheduled first device major frame starts as soon as the previous rescheduled first device major frame has ended.
