Abstract
A system is described for allocating bandwidth comprising: a transport layer to support a first socket connection for a first application and a second socket connection for a second application; and a socket prioritization module to allocate relatively more bandwidth to the first socket connection relative to the second socket connection, wherein allocation of bandwidth is based on one or more characteristics of the first application and/or the second application.
