ABSTRACT:
A telecommunication node controls overload conditions in a distributed processing environment using processing nodes that include: (i) a load monitor configured to monitor a loading factor for the processing node and produce real-time loading factor information; and (ii) a call processor operable to process signaling messages. In addition, the telecommunication node uses signaling nodes that include: (i) a load information list including the real-time loading factor information received from each of the processing nodes; (ii) an overload policy list including programmable overload reaction policies for each of the processing nodes, in which the overload reaction policies control overload conditions of the processing nodes based on the real-time loading factor information; and (iii) a load distributor configured to select one of the processing nodes to process one of the signaling messages based on the real-time loading factor information and the overload reaction policies.
