Resource allocation (computer)

Resource allocation is the process by which a computing system aims to meet the hardware requirements of an application run by it.^[1] Computing, networking and energy resources must be optimised taking into account hardware, performance and environmental restrictions.^[2] This process may be undertaken by the hardware itself,^[3] an operating system, a distributed computing system,^[4] or as part of data center management.
