DATA PROCESSING METHOD AND DEVICE

A method including: determining whether the receiving terminal has received a second data packet when a first data packet in a plurality of data packets continuously sent by a sending terminal at an interval in a preset sending sequence is received, the second data packet comprises the data packet preceding the first data packet in the preset sending sequence; determining whether the second data packet is expired when the second data packet is not received; acquiring a consumption importance level of the second data packet when the second data packet is expired; and consuming the first data packet when the consumption importance level of the second data packet is a preset consumption importance level. Through the present disclosure, an application corresponding to the plurality of data packets is responded timely to avoid a delayed response to the applications. For example, the smoothness of the application is improved.
