The resource manager (140) receives service allocation requests from client nodes (110) and calculates a score for each request based on time weighting, available resources, quantity of data received and service quality value. If the score meets a specified threshold, the request is forwarded to a ready table to be allocated resources from servers (130), and if not is returned to a pending table. The service quality value contained in a request is a value which is allocated to each user of the computer system in accordance with their relative priority. Independent claims are also included for 1. An apparatus comprising logic to receive requests and compute a score. 2. A system comprising clients, servers and a resource manager. 3. A machine-readable medium containing stored software.
