Device and process for handling the execution of a job in a data processing system

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process and a device for handling the execution of a job in an open data processing system as a function of the resources. The process comprises the following steps: determining the resources available in virtual memory, real memory, temporary file space, central processing unit utilization time during the last time interval; computing the amount of resources preallocated to other requests and not yet used; comparing the amount of resources required for the execution of a job for which the request has been presented to the current amount of resources available minus the total amount of resources preallocated to other requests, in order to determine as a function of the result of this comparison the start, the deference or the denial of the start of the job requested.
