CA 2694556

A method for dynamically allocating MCU resources (900) during a multipoint network event such as a conference call. The method determines the number of MCU resources (900) to allocate for the start (910) of the multipoint network event and then at each of a plurality of modeling intervals during the multipoint event adjusts (930) the number of allocated MCU resources based upon actual inbound users (940). Self-tuning (100) of the allocation of MCU resources for multipoint events occurs in advance of use by providing a look ahead allocation of resources based on what is likely to be needed in the future for a conferencing event. The number of multipoint events (1020) occurring within a tuning interval are counted (1010). The number of MCU resources actually utilized during each multipoint event are accumulated (1040) and then a probability value is determined (1080) for future use of MCU resources for an upcoming multipoint event.
