ABSTRACT:
A computer-implemented method for distributing processes among a plurality of resources is disclosed. The processes are associated with a plurality of priority groups. The method includes ascertaining whether a first priority group of the plurality of priority groups is rich, the first priority group of the plurality of groups being deemed rich if the first priority group is entitled to at least a whole one of the plurality of resources, the first priority group of the plurality of groups being deemed poor if the first priority group is entitled to less than the whole one of the plurality of resources. The method also includes distributing processes of the first priority group among at least a first subset of the plurality of resources in accordance with a first computer-implemented methodology if the first priority group is deemed a rich. The method additionally includes distributing processes of the first priority group among at least a second subset of the plurality of resources in accordance with a second computer-implemented methodology if the first priority group is deemed poor, the second computer-implemented methodology being different from the first computer-implemented methodology.
