Abstract
A method of specifying behavior among a group of computing tasks included in a request to be performed in a domain of computing resources is disclosed. Method steps include receiving, at a scheduler operably coupled to the domain, a p/f request, the received p/f request including a first group and a first relationship, the first group comprising at least a first p/f group element and a second p/f group element, the first relationship defining a desired behavior of the first and second p/f group elements with respect to each other during performance of the p/f request; determining whether the domain includes available computing resources capable of satisfying the first relationship; and in response to a determination that the domain includes available computing resources capable of satisfying the first relationship, allocating, with the scheduler, at least one available computing resource to fulfill the p/f request.
