摘要

A method and apparatus are provided for bandwidth management. The method includes receiving a value representative of a target bandwidth from a remote device; storing a data packet in a data queue; associating a quantum of bandwidth to the data queue, wherein the quantum of the bandwidth is a function of at least the target bandwidth and time; and transmitting the data packet based on at least the quantum associated with the data queue. A method and apparatus for network congestion control are also provided.
