Patent number: 9104491Abstract: A request from a client to perform a task is received. The client has a predetermined limit of compute resources. The task is dispatched from a batch scheduler to a compute node as a non-speculative task if a quantity of compute resources is available at the compute node to process the task, and the quantity of compute resources in addition to a total quantity of compute resources being utilized by the client is less than or equal to the predetermined limit, such that the non-speculative task is processed without being preempted by an additional task requested by an additional client. The task is dispatched, from the batch scheduler to the compute node, as a speculative task if the quantity of compute resources is available to process the task, and the quantity of compute resources in addition to the total quantity of compute resources is greater than the predetermined limit.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2012Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: Disney Enterprises, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan Eric Geibel, Jeffrey M.

Publication number: 20130219386Abstract: A resource broker determines availability of a portion of a set of compute resources in real-time. The set of compute resources is assigned as a priority to a master process. Further, the resource broker assigns the portion of the set of compute resources to an auxiliary process if the portion of the set of compute resources is available. In addition, the resource broker determines that the master process is attempting to utilize the portion of the set of compute resources. The resource broker also assigns the portion of the set of compute resources to the master process from the auxiliary process without an interruption that exceeds a predetermined time threshold of processing being performed by the master process.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 21, 2012Publication date: August 22, 2013Applicant: DISNEY ENTERPRISES, INC.Inventors: Jonathan Eric Geibel, Jeffrey M.
