Distribution of performance allocation in a data center

摘要

A computer-implemented system for distributing power to a plurality of calculating machines in a network of calculating machines, the apparatus comprising: an interface arranged to receive electronic requests from power allocation calculating machines, each electronic request having a current value and one or more priority values, wherein the current value represents a request for a performance allocation that is likely to be used by the requesting computing machine in a time period, and one or more priority values that prioritize one or more tasks likely to be performed by the requesting computing machine in the one or more priority values Period to be completed; a score module executing on a processor of a device and programmed to calculate scores for each requesting calculator based on current values and priority values; a performance allocation module executed on the processor and programmed to compare the scores generated by the scoring module and assign scores to each calculator based on scores by sending an arbiter to each calculator.
