Abstract

In one example embodiment, a method is provided and includes monitoring a display status associated with a client device that is participating in a meeting being conducted over a network (wired, wireless, etc.). The method also includes reporting the display status to a server associated with the meeting. For example, the server could be responsible for controlling at least a portion of meeting resources for the client device (or the client device itself could include software to perform these management functions). The method also includes receiving reduced meeting resources based, at least in part, on the display status.
