Class Allocator

java.lang.Object
  be.ac.ua.broker.allocation.Allocator

public class Allocator
extends java.lang.Object

This class is used during the resource allocation phase of the broker. For every instance on which certain task hours were scheduled in the previous phase of the broker, is determined what pricing model will be used and the actual prices are coupled to the schedule. There are different options available, only on-demand instances, no spot instances, spot-enabled (which uses the spot model to determine the bid) and spot-optimal (which used the actual spot price history to determine the bid).
