Abstract
Systems, methods and apparatuses (i.e., utilities) for use in performing dynamic cost model (DCM)-based scheduling of resources of a distributed computing system (e.g., server farms, computing clouds, and the like). In one arrangement, cost for consumption of a resource or type of resource of the system may be dynamically determined as a function of both a demand for and an availability of the resource. In this regard, changing demand for and/or availability of the resource over time can also adjust a cost for consumption of the resource. For instance, assigning a lower consumption cost to utilizing of a resource in low demand can benefit system operators by realizing increased use on little-used resources as well as users by allowing the users to take advantage of lower usage costs.
