Hierarchical Optimization for Fast Resource Allocation
Krasimira Petrova Stoilova, Todor Stoilov · InTech eBooks · 2012
Particular problem in the management of distributed systems is the optimal resource allocation among the subsystems. When several subsystems of the distributed system use or compete for the use of a common resource, the limited capacity of the resource can give rise to constraint system behavior. Respectively, the fast solution of the resource problems strongly influences the application area of their implementation in real live solutions. This situation occurs in every day situations: queue at a counter in supermarket; congestion in road traffic; products’ delays in machines during their production process; messages wait for access to a common transmission channel and computer jobs for the use of set of processors.
