Abstract
A disclosed example involves determining whether there is at least one valid combination of nodes and links from the network of nodes with capability and capacity over time to complete a computer-executable job by a deadline. A total cost combination of nodes and links is selected from among the at least one valid combination of nodes and links with the capability and capacity over time to complete the computer-executable job by the deadline. The computer-executable job is scheduled to be executed on at least one selected node. The scheduling is based on compiled instructions comprising the computer-executable job. At least some of the link capacity of at least one of the links connected to the at least one selected node is reserved, to match a job transport capacity requirement of the computer-executable job.
