ABSTRACT:
A system and method is provided for assigning a plurality of executable processes to a plurality of physical processors in a multi-processor computer system using a minimum processor share and a maximum processor share defined for each executable process. In an embodiment, the method can include allocating shares of total processor time to each executable process in proportion to the minimum processor shares up to the maximum processor shares to form target share allocations. The target share allocations can be used to map processes to the physical processors.
