<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To promptly acquire a program to be executed. <P>SOLUTION: The system selects appropriate computing systems to execute one or more instances of a program, based in part on locations of one or more previously stored copies of the program from which copies of the program to be executed may be acquired. For example, in some situations, the selection of an appropriate computing system to execute an instance of a program is based in part on physical or logical proximity to other resources, such as stored copies of the program, executing copies of the program, and/or available computing systems. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
