ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for scheduling computing device resources include a scheduler that maintains multiple queues. Requests are placed in one of the multiple queues depending on how much resource time the requests are to receive and when they are to receive it. The queue that a request is placed into depends on a pool bandwidth defined for a pool that includes the request and a bandwidth request. A request has an importance associated therewith that is taken into account in the scheduling process. The scheduler proceeds through the queues in a sequential and circular fashion, taking a work item from a queue for processing when that queue is accessed.
