Abstract

A scheduler module receives a first allocation request for a given amount of a resource in a cloud computing platform that an application program currently needs. The scheduler module allocates the given amount of the resource to the application program for a first time slot. The given amount of allocated resource is received back at the scheduler module upon expiration of the first time slot for subsequent allocation. The scheduler module receives a second allocation request for a given amount of a resource that an application program currently needs. The scheduler module allocates the given amount of the resource to the application program for a second time slot. The given amount of allocated resource is received back at the scheduler module upon expiration of the second time slot for subsequent allocation.
