Abstract
A system and method for maximum utilization of bandwidth of a resource incrementally adjusts in real time the allocated bandwidth per source queue per class of service based at least in part on the current status of a destination virtual output queue fill level. By varying the permissible bandwidth incrementally not only is the available bandwidth utilized optimally but also a desired class of service is maintained.
