1. A method for distributing event delivery for a set of traffic processors in a telecommunication network, the method comprising the steps of:

  • obtaining a status for each active traffic processors of the set of processors in the telecommunication network;

    determining a traffic processor from the set of traffic processors with the lowest traffic load, the traffic load is determined for each traffic processor of the set of traffic processors based on a weighting factor, an event queue length of a traffic processors and a current traffic load;

    sorting each traffic processor from the set of traffic processors;

    selecting an event group manager, the event group manager is an event scheduler that manages the traffic processor of the set of traffic processors with the lowest traffic load;

    retrieving a time slot table for each traffic processor of the set of traffic processors;

    determining an allowable event queue length for each traffic processor of the set of traffic processors, the event queue length being a determined threshold for redistributing event delivery, wherein the allowable event queue length based on the current traffic load, an optimal traffic load and a maximum event queue length; and

    re-distributing the event among the set of traffic processors starting with the traffic processor having the lowest traffic load.
