Abstract: A method and apparatus for data scheduling are provided. The method includes: when data arrive at a device, the device judging whether the arrived data have a delay-tolerant characteristic or not; if the arrived data have the delay-tolerant characteristic, then the device delaying scheduling and transmission of the arrived data; and if the arrived data do not have the delay-tolerant characteristic, then the device immediately initiating a call process or immediately initiating a data transmission process. Wherein, the device is a user equipment or a base station. When the device is the user equipment, the arrived data are uplink data, and when the device is the base station, the arrived data are downlink data corresponding to the user equipment. The technical scheme of the present application delays the scheduling of service data with the delay-tolerance characteristic, thus alleviating resource pressure of PUSCH and PDSCH and optimizing system efficiency.
