Information processing system and resource allocation method

Abstract

Provided is an information processing system that is capable of quickly starting an application program even in a case where a computer resource pool is depleted, and of completing without reducing the quality of service even in the case of an application that is ended in a short amount of time. A management server manages computer resources and a usage state of the computer resource, and in a case where no computer resources is available, and an expected execution time of the application is less than or equal to a reference value, at the time of receiving a degree of parallel and the expected execution time of the application from a user, selects computer resource executing an application having a relatively small degree of deviation from an initial expected execution time, even in a case where a plurality of applications are temporarily simultaneously executed, and arranges and executes the application.
