Abstract

In this work, the scalableness of resources is taken to mean the possibility of the prior change in the obtained dynamic characteristics of computational processes for a certain basic set of processors and the communication medium in an effort to optimize the dynamics of software applications. A method is put forward for the generation of optimal strategies—a set of the versions of the fulfillment of programs on the basis of a vector criterion. The method is urgent for the effective use of resources of computational clusters and metacomputational media and also for dynamic control of processes in real time on the basis of the static scaling.
