Abstract

A system includes at least one server that is configured to provide a multi-client network service to a plurality of existing users. When the server receives requests to join the multi-client network service from new users, the server may issue timestamps to each new user, obtain load metric based on the requests or timestamps, and collect the load metric to obtain historical data characterizing a demand in the multi-client network service over time. Further, based on the historical data, the server can predict a future load demand in the multi-client network service and selectively enable to join the multi-client network service by at least one of the plurality of new users based on the future load demand.
