Bandwidth allocation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bandwidth allocation refers to various methods used in the communications industry to design and assign frequency channels to different wireless applications.
Bandwidth allocation can also be used in reference to the computing industry, in scenarios such as allocating bandwidth to a web site running on one of your servers, or allocating bandwidth to a computer on your network. Allocations in computing are often administered/enforced by terminating or temporarily suspending access once you have utilized your allocated bandwidth.
