Computer networks can use multiple heterogeneous communication channels. All the packets passing through a network facility, e.g. router or switch, must share the limited resources. These shared resources include the available bandwidth of linking channels, CPUs and the buffers. Packets will differently delay if multiple heterogeneous communication channels are used. Present paper aims at overcoming this delay problem for delivering data in case of existence of a number of heterogeneous linking channels by proposing the packet forwarding mechanism - Optimized Load Balancing. Also numerical results are obtained for Optimized Load Balancing mechanism that convince of the improvement of delays for proposed mechanism with multiple network links approach.
