This disclosure relates to methods and systems for queuing traffic in packet-switched
networks. In one of many possible embodiments, a queue management system includes a
plurality of queues and a priority module configured to assign incoming packets to the
queues based on priorities associated with the incoming packets. The priority module is
further configured to drop at least one of the packets already contained in the queues. The
priority module is configured to operate across multiple queues when determining which of …
