ABSTRACT:
Streaming media servers are used to provide data streams of streaming media data to network devices across a communications network. In order to allow the servers to scale its processing as the number of data streams increases, these servers use a delay timer determination module for determining when a given CPU is to transfer its streaming media data corresponding to its group of data streams, a CPU wake up module for initiating an acceleration process for each CPU upon receipt of a signal from the delay timer determination module, and a plurality of CPU processing modules for transferring streaming media data corresponding to its group of data streams. The delay timer determination module uses a stagger and interval parameter where these parameters are calculated from a set of system parameters, including a number of processors available to support data streams, CPUnum, a size for the smallest data buffer within all of the network devices, MemReceiverMin, and the maximum bit data transfer rate, BRmax, supported.
