TECHNIQUES AND ARCHITECTURES FOR EFFICIENT ALLOCATION OF UNDER-UTILIZED RESOURCES

摘要

In a computing environment, a set of executing processes each having associated resources are provided. Aggregate resources for the computing environment include multiple different types of resources. A utilization level is determined for each of the resources within the computing environment to determine an unconsumed capacity for each of the resources below a utilization threshold. The utilization threshold is resource-dependent. One or more working sets of resources including unconsumed capacity of resources of a similar class are generated. The working sets are provided to a second plurality of processes. The first plurality of processes and the second plurality of processes are executed concurrently using the aggregate resources and at least one working set of resources.
