Abstract
A computer-implemented method of managing resources for multiple trial distributed processing tasks is presented. The method includes estimating an expected time needed to process each of a set of mask patterns which can be independently processed. The method further includes allocating each of the set of mask patterns to a set of processing cores in accordance with the expected time, and processing the mask patterns in accordance with the allocation, when the computer in invoked to estimate, allocate, and process.
