    摘要： A failover algorithm implemented in software, without any failover-specific hardware, that allows servers in a cluster to determine whether a primary or secondary controller is active without requiring communication between the primary and secondary controllers. A server cluster includes several servers coupled to two servers, which are designated as a primary controller and a secondary controller. While the server cluster is operational, either the primary controller or the secondary controller will be actively controlling the cluster. Software running on the servers of the cluster, on the primary controller, and on the secondary controller, cooperates to ensure that each server will properly identify which controller is active at any particular time, including, but not limited to, upon starting up the server cluster, upon adding one or more servers to a cluster that is already operation, and upon failure of an active controller, a server, or a link between an active controller and a server. The failover algorithm includes the following steps performed by each of a group of servers in the cluster for identifying which controller is active: making the server's own assessment of the active controller; and identifying either the primary controller or the secondary controller as a consensus active controller based upon a majority vote of the own assessments by each server in the cluster as to which controller is the active controller.

    摘要： A method for determining a load distribution for a plurality of servers is disclosed. A total user count during a predetermined interval of time is received from each server of a plurality of servers for all channel resources associated with each respective server of the plurality of servers. A present load distribution is determined for the predetermined interval of time for each respective server of the plurality of servers based on the total user count received from each server. A load gradient is determined for the predetermined interval of time from each server of the plurality of servers. A future load distribution is determined for each respective server based on the total user count for each server and each respective load gradient. Lastly, a load distribution for each respective channel resource is distributed among the plurality of servers based on the determined future load distribution for each respective channel resource. The predetermined interval of time is a sliding window of time having a predetermined number of timeslots each having a predetermined timeslot interval. Additionally, a load gradient for a server is based on a difference between the total number of users connected to the server at the end of the predetermined interval of time and the total number of users connected to the server at the beginning of the predetermined interval of time. When a new channel resource is created, an initial estimated weight is assigned to the new channel resource. The new channel resource is then assigned to a selected server of the plurality of servers based on the initial estimated weight associated with the new channel resource and a load distribution associated with each respective server of the plurality of servers.

    摘要翻译： 公开了一种用于确定多个服务器的负载分布的方法。 从多个服务器的每个服务器接收与多个服务器中的每个相应服务器相关联的所有信道资源的预定时间间隔内的总用户计数。 基于从每个服务器接收的总用户数量，确定多个服务器中的每个服务器的预定时间间隔的当前负载分布。 在多个服务器中的每个服务器的预定时间间隔内确定负载梯度。 基于每个服务器的总用户数和每个相应的负载梯度，确定每个相应服务器的未来负载分布。 最后，基于所确定的每个相应信道资源的未来负载分布，在多个服务器之间分配每个各个信道资源的负载分布。 预定的时间间隔是具有预定数量的时隙的滑动窗口，每个时隙具有预定的时隙间隔。 此外，服务器的负载梯度基于在预定时间间隔结束时连接到服务器的用户总数与在服务器的预定间隔开始时连接到服务器的总用户数之间的差异 时间。 当创建新的信道资源时，初始估计权重被分配给新的信道资源。 然后，基于与新信道资源相关联的初始估计权重和与多个服务器中的每个相应服务器相关联的负载分布，将新信道资源分配给多个服务器中的选定服务器。

    摘要： System(s) and method(s) are provided to drive early adoption and retention of disparate sources of funding and financing an award program, with application to a consumer compensation scheme subsidized through advertisement revenue. A component that manages advertisement revenue, or received funds, allocates a portion of revenue to subsidize a rebate program, or award program, for enrolled advertisers, or sources of funding, from a universe of advertisers. Rebate or award funds are provided to enrolled advertisers on an exclusivity based for a specific period of time, after which funds are transferred to a commonly accessible account. The subsidized nature of the awarded compensation funds and their time sensitivity drive advertiser enrollment and retention and ensures consumers are aggressively compensated. In an aspect, the subsidized rebate program can be exploited to directly compensate a consumer online or offline in exchange for the consumer's intent in engaging with a service platform.
