Abstract

An embodiment of a method of allocating computing resources begins with a first step of identifying applications which comprise candidates for execution on a shared computing system. In a second step, the method identifies at least one subset of the computing resources for each application. Each subset for a particular application comprises sufficient resources to support the particular application. The method continues with a third step of assigning a value to each subset. The method concludes with a fourth step of determining an assignment of the computing resources to the applications which provides a near maximal overall value.
