Abstract

An automated resource allocation technique for scheduling a batch computer job in a multi-computer system environment. According to example embodiments, resource allocation processing may be performed when receiving a batch computer job that needs to be run by a software application executable on more than one computing system in the multi-computer system environment. The job may be submitted for pre-processing analysis by the software application. A pre-processing analysis result comprising job evaluation information may be received from the software application and the result may be evaluated to select a computing system in the multi-computer system environment that is capable of executing the application to run the job. The job may be submitted to the selected computing system to have the software application run the job to completion.
