If you mean at the router (which it sounds like), you might look at
TBF, a token bucket implementation.

There have been at least two studies of end-host based pacing, both
involving TCP variants.  Visweshwariah and I did some work on "Rate
Based Pacing" (search for files with rbp in the names), and
Padmanabhan's work on "TCP fast start" was also evaluated in ns.
