A method of controlling communication between an edge cloud server and a plurality of clients via a radio access network comprises determining per-client buffer information relating to one or more buffers in the radio access network based on known configuration information, and dynamically determining current traffic flow information associated with a client in the radio access network. The determined per-client buffer information relating to the client, and traffic flow information associated with the client, is used to determine an amount of free buffer space available in the per-client buffer associated with that client. The method comprises controlling communication between the edge cloud server and the client, via the radio access network, based on the determined free buffer space.
