Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a network interface device comprising circuitry to cause transmission of packets based on transmission times and use of at least one of multiple time slot granular scheduling lists, wherein the multiple time slot granular scheduling lists comprise at least one list of a first time slot duration and at least one list of a second time slot duration and wherein the first time slot duration is different than the second time slot duration. In some examples, a minimum delay value of a list of the at least one list of a second time slot duration corresponds to a maximum delay value of a list of the at least one list of a first time slot duration. In some examples, the at least one list of a first time slot duration comprises a fine granularity list and the at least one list of a second time slot duration comprises a coarse granularity list.
