ABSTRACT:
A method and system for synchronizing allocation of resources in a parallel processing system. At predefined time intervals, each user application executing in a parallel processing system is given a higher priority such that the system resources are allocated to the user applications instead of the operating system services. This high priority lasts for a predetermined amount of time. When the time has elapsed, each priority value is lowered, thus giving the operating system services an opportunity to execute.
