Abstract

See full text

Scheduling a program for periodic execution. The program requires a computer resource for execution. The historic availability of the resource is determined and recorded at a multiplicity of times a day. Subsequently, a request is received to schedule a program for execution on the day at a specified time and daily thereafter at the specified time or weekly or monthly thereafter on the day at the specified time. If there has been sufficient historic availability of the resource on the day at approximately the specified time, the program is scheduled for execution on the day at the specified time and daily thereafter at the specified time or weekly or monthly thereafter on the day at the specified time as requested. If not, the program is scheduled for execution at another time on the specific day close to the specified time.
