An adaptive system for optimizing the bandwidth of a communication link in a communications session is disclosed. The decision as to when bandwidth in a communication session is to be released, or added, is based on the actual user activity rather than on an a priori determination which may not reflect the actual workload. Additionally, this decision is based on the actual costs associated with maintaining, releasing, and/or establishing a communication link or additional bandwidth. The costs include both direct costs and opportunity costs. The algorithm can also adapt its decision making process to its own performance, using feedback information to determine if it is minimizing the costs involved.
