Abstract

An online file transfer tasks scheduling method for processing multiple file path access requests in a network, the method including: sending at least one file path access request to a corresponding one of at least one file access service module, executing a processing procedure in each of the at least one file access service module to generate a task package according to each received file path access request, and using one or more task execution units to process one or more of the task packages; and using a task execution unit balance module to periodically evaluate a load ratio between a plurality of the file access service modules, and determining the number of the task execution units for each file access service module according to the load ratio.
