Abstract
A system and method for automatically identifying a desirable reconfiguration of computer system resources, using a perceptron to determine whether one resource configuration will likely be more efficient or more effective than a second configuration. An iterative solver identifies possible configurations or reconfigurations of the resources. A possible configuration is applied to the perceptron, which determines whether the new configuration is more attractive than an existing or baseline configuration, in terms of a predetermined objective function (e.g., cost, performance, resource utilization, throughput). If the new configuration improves the objective function, the new configuration may be automatically or manually applied through a dynamic reconfiguration operation.
