Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A network processor (201) for processing information (204) is described. Each information element is associated with a flow and comprises at least one information element segment. A policy controller (205) stores an information element into at least one information segment storage unit with a memory (211), and determines whether an information element segment conforms to a predetermined quality of service QOS. A traffic processor (209) selects the information element segment for forwarding based on at least one QOS parameter. A forwarding processor forwards the selected information element segment to an egress port.
