Abstract

In a method for estimating a complexity of a computing job, selected data objects relevant to a data repository are retrieved. In addition, points are assigned to multiple elements of the selected data objects according to a predefined schedule and scores for the selected data objects are calculated by applying a mathematical function to the multiple elements and complexities of the data objects are estimated based upon the calculated scores and the predefined schedule. In addition, a complexity of the computing job is estimated based upon the estimated complexities of the data objects and the estimated complexity of the computing job is stored.
