Today's data centers networks are commonly featured with the richness paths. This aim to improve the network performance with multipath connections and increases reliable system connection for the cables get cut, the failures of switches or routers. However, the common problem of multipath connection is suffered from the difference path conditions in term of speed and delay. In this paper based on delay aware packet scheduling, we model the path scheduling (PS) algorithm on the asymmetric paths to reduce the out of order packet at the receiver node. We performed the PS under standard TCP Packet Reordering Solutions [8], and MPTCP Congestion control [2] with NS-3.13 simulator [15]. The results show that our proposed can reduce the out of order packet by 10% at the receiver node, resulting in improving the throughput of 40% compared to the default path schedule, while we set the large difference delay on asymmetric path connections.
