Methods and systems for hierarchical resource allocation through bookmark allocation

摘要

Methods and systems for efficient allocation of resources between child nodes of a parent node in a hierarchical system. The parent node has a limited number of resources available in a resource allocation phrase. The limited number of resources are allocated according to requests from the child nodes in the resource allocation phase. It is determined whether at least one of the child nodes has a request not met by the allocated resources. A bookmark associated with the child node is set for the additional required resources. Additional resources are allocated to the child node according to the bookmark in a subsequent resource allocation phase.
