Abstract
The present invention is a method and system for balancing the load on processors based upon the CPU utilization information of the processors. Real time CPU utilization information of processors may be effectively analyzed to prevent overloading of processing resources as assigned by a multipoint controller of a VoIP network. CPU utilization information may include the number of current conferencing channels being supported by each processor, CPU speed and the quantity of other applications being supported by the media processor. CPU utilization information from each processor may be retrieved by establishing a communication protocol with each processor and periodically polling the processors in regard to their CPU load capability. Assignment of processing tasks to processors may be based on which specific processors have the capability to handle the processing task.
