Abstract

A system of networked computers is disclosed having a number of servers and a number of clients. The clients are each provided with a server selector routine and the servers are each provided with a server reporter routine. The server selector routine of any of the clients is operable to obtain server processing load information from the server reporter routine of any of the servers. The server selector routine is responsive to a client activation request for a software task designated for server execution to select two or more servers to interrogate for server processing load information and designate one of the servers to execute the software task based on the server processing load information obtained by this interrogation.
