Abstract

A middleware processor provisioning process provisions a plurality of processors in a multi-processor environment. The processing capability of the multiprocessor environment is subdivided and multiple instances of service applications start protected processes to service a plurality of user processing requests, where the number of protected processes may exceed the number of processors. A single processing queue is created for each processor. User processing requests are portioned and dispatched across the plurality of processing queues and are serviced by protected processes from corresponding service applications, thereby efficiently using available processing resources while servicing the user processing requests in a desired manner.
