Server Load Management

摘要

System and method for collecting values of one or more parameters of one or more clients that are communicatively connected to a server. A model is constructed based on the collected values of the one or more parameters to thereby model as a function of time the probability that the values of the one or more parameters of the one or more clients will change by an amount that is considered significant, e.g. at the server. An update of the one or more parameters is received from one of the clients. Responsive to receiving the update, the model is used to calculate a timing for the next update of the values from the one of the clients. The calculated timing for the next update is sent to the one of the clients.

1. A method implemented by a client computing device, the method comprising:
sending to a server values from the client computing device of one or more parameters of the client computing device, the client computing device communicatively connected to the server, the one or more parameters describing a current state of the client computing device; sending to the server an update of the values of the one or more parameters of said client computing device with the current state of the values of the one or more parameters; receiving from the server a timing for a next update, the timing for the next update having been calculated by the server using a model based on collected values of the one or more parameters that model as a function of time a probability that the values of the one or more parameters of the client computing device will change by an amount that is considered significant based on whether the amount will affect a decision that the server makes; and sending the next update of the values of the one or more parameters at the timing for the next update.
