Systems and methods for selecting specific code segments in conjunction with executing requested tasks

A system operative to select a particular code segment for executing a specific task while complying with a certain execution constraint, comprising:

• a pool of physical computational resources comprising at least a first sub-set and a second sub-set of physical computational resources, in which each of the sub-sets comprises at least a respective set of storage space, and a respective set of processors;
• and
• a database comprising a plurality of code segments, in which at least two of the code segments in the database are operative to facilitate execution of a specific task, and in which each of the code segments requires a respective one of the sub-sets of physical computational resources to be successfully executed;
• wherein:
• the system is configured to:
• receive a request to execute the specific task, in which said execution is required to comply with at least one certain constraint;
• access the at least two code segments in the database;
• determine, per each of the at least two code segments, and given a current state of physical computational resources availability in the pool, a system constraint arising in conjunction with allocating the respective sub-set of physical computational resources;
• and
• select, out of the at least two code segments, one particular code segment that allows compliance with the certain constraint in view of the system constraint associated with said one particular code segment selected, thereby designate the respective one of the sub-sets of physical computational resources for executing the specific task.
