Abstract
A system permits queues to use more than an allocated amount of bandwidth. The system allocates an amount of bandwidth to each of the queues and determines whether any of the queues is using less than the allocated amount of bandwidth. If so, the system reallocates the allocated bandwidth from one of the queues to at least one other one of the queues based on the amount of bandwidth used by each of the queues.
