Abstract
An amount of bandwidth is allocated to a transport of content information as data via a data connection before initiating the transport. The content information is encoded in a layered coding scheme using a base layer and at least one enhancement layer. First it is determined if the data connection is in use for a further transport of further content information as further data via the data connection. Then one or more further attributes are determined of the further transport. Then, a number of the one or more enhancement layers of the content information are determined for the transport under control of a pre-determined policy depending on the one or more further attributes of the further transport.
