Abstract

Methods and apparatus are provided for load-balancing in a portable terminal having a plurality of Central Processing Units (CPUs). A utilization is calculated for each of the plurality of CPUs, when a state of a task is changed. An average of the utilizations of the plurality of CPUs is calculated. It is determined whether the average exceeds a predetermined threshold. Load-balancing is performed when the average exceeds the predetermined threshold.
