Abstract
Disclosed herein are a resource manager node and a resource management method. The resource manager node includes a resource management unit, a resource policy management unit, a shared resource capability management unit, a shared resource status monitoring unit, and a shared resource allocation unit. The resource management unit performs an operation necessary for resource allocation when a resource allocation request is received. The resource policy management unit determines a resource allocation policy based on the characteristic of the task, and generates resource allocation information. The shared resource capability management unit manages the topology of nodes, information about the capabilities of resources, and resource association information. The shared resource status monitoring unit monitors and manages information about the status of each node and the use of allocated resources. The shared resource allocation unit sends a resource allocation request to at least one of the plurality of nodes.
