Abstract
An operating system implements classes of network streams. Applications assign their network streams to the classes. The operating system, in turn, regulates the streams according to which classes the streams are in. As conditions change, network resources may be made available or more fully utilized by regulating streams according to which classes they have been assigned to. Network resources may be made available, perhaps rapidly or preemptively, for streams in higher priority classes by restricting streams in lower priority classes.
