Abstract
A capability is provided for reallocating, to a first borrower that is requesting resources, resources presently allocated to a second borrower. A method for allocating a resource of a system includes receiving a request for a system resource allocation from a first borrower, determining a request priority of the first borrower based on a present resource allocation associated with the first borrower, determining a hold priority of a second borrower based on a present resource allocation associated with the second borrower, and determining, using the first borrower request priority and the second borrower hold priority, whether to reallocate any of the second borrower resource allocation to the first borrower.
