Managing processor resources in a multisystem environment in order to provide smooth real-time data streams, while enabling other types of applications to be processed concurrently

摘要

A system within a multisystem environment is selected to run a real- time application. The selection process looks for a system in which the amount of a processor resource for delivering a real-time data stream of the real-time application has the least impact on other work proseccing on the selected system. The real-time application is allocated an amount of a processor resource that does not exceed a limit chosen for a group of one or more real-time applications. A selected amount of the processor resource remains available for at least one non- real-time application of the multisystem environment.
