Abstract
A system and method for providing service guarantees for data flows between an initiator component and a target component. For each data flow, a set of channels is selected to carry the data flow from initiator to target. The individual performance guarantees of the selected channels are aligned to be uniform in units and the individual guarantees are aggregated to provide an end-to-end service guarantee for a particular flow.
