Abstract
A system and method for latency assignment in a system having shared resources for performing jobs including computing a new resource price at each resource and sending the new resource price to a task controller in a task path that has at least one job running in the task path. A path price is computed for each task path of the task controller, if there is a critical time specified for the task. New deadlines are determined for the resources in a task path based on the resource price and the path price. The new deadlines are sent to the resources where the at least one job is running to improve system performance.
