ABSTRACT:
An open computing system including a central client system and a plurality of server systems connected through a network, wherein the servers each include load calculators for calculating the load on the server at predetermined first sampling instants, a load rate calculator for determining the progress rate of the load on each server and memory for storing the load and the progress rage. The client includes means for polling, which at predetermined second sampling instants, requests each server to furnish the progress rate of the load and an average load over a predetermined number of first sampling instances, memory for storing the progress rate of the load and the average load, and a server selector for selecting the least loaded server to provide services for an application running on the client. The system optimizes the selection of servers in a multi-server system.
