Abstract

Method by which a plurality of processes are assigned to a plurality of computational resources, each computational resource providing resource capacities in a plurality of processing dimensions. Processing loads are associated in each processing dimension with each process. A loading metric is associated with each process based on the processing loads in each processing dimension. One or more undesignated computational resources are designated from the plurality of computational resources to host unassigned processes from the plurality of processes. In descending order of the loading metric one unassigned process is assigned from the plurality of processes to each one of the one or more designated computational resources. In ascending order of the loading metric any remaining unassigned processes are assigned from the plurality of processes to the one or more designated computational resources whilst there remains sufficient resource capacity in each of the plurality of processing dimensions.
