SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT METHOD AND SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT SERVER

摘要

A reservation method of computer resources having short idle periods is provided. A schedule management method includes: a terminal; computers that perform tasks; and a schedule management server that manages the allocation of the computers. Each computer includes a virtual machine monitor that manages virtual computers. The schedule management server includes a schedule management part that manages reservation information including reservation state of each virtual computer, and creates reservation schedules for allocating the virtual computers to the tasks. The schedule creation method includes extracting a free period of each virtual computer, and creating a reservation schedule that secures a period that coincides with the reservation request period by reserving one virtual computer, and another virtual computer so that the end-point of a reservation period configured in the free period of the one virtual computer coincides with or overlaps the start-point of a reservation period configured in the free period of the another computer.
