Abstract
In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of managing a computing job based on a job priority and a submitter quota, the method including determining whether a declared priority of a computing job exceeds a predetermined declared priority quota of a submitter; in the case that the declared priority of the computing job exceeds the predetermined declared priority of the submitter, substituting a reduced priority for the declared priority of the computing job; determining whether the reduced priority of the computing job exceeds a predetermined reduced priority quota for the submitter; and in the case that the reduced priority of the computing job does not exceed the predetermined reduced priority quota of the submitter, assigning the computing job to at least one computer resource at the reduced priority.
