Abstract

In a computing system in which resources are available for performance of computing tasks allocated to them, and tasks are requested by requesting computers, a scheduler is associated with each of the requesting computers, to enable that computer to obtain resource for performance of the tasks. Each scheduler obtains resources, in accordance with a locally formulated preference list of resources, on the basis of scheduling tokens issued by resources indicative of reciprocal prioritisation of tasks by resources.
