(foldoc) | best effort
A classification of low priority network traffic,
used especially the Internet.
Different kinds of traffic have different priorities.
Videoconferencing and other types of real-time
communication, for example, require a certain minimum
guaranteed bandwidth and latency and so must be given a
high priority. Electronic mail, on the other hand, can
tolerate an arbitrarily long delay and is classified as a
"best-effort" service.
[Scientific American, Nov. 1994, pp. 83-84].
