More Information
Summary:A system for allocating heterogeneous resources may include a client device, a plurality of heterogeneous resources, and a server host. The client device may be configured to request access to one or more specific resources, and the server host may be configured to allocate the requested resource(s) to the client device in response to the server host determining the availability of the requested resource(s). The client device may then establish direct and/or exclusive access to the requested resource(s) and communicate commands to and exchange data with the requested resource(s), bypassing the server host. The server host may also be configured to queue requests for unavailable resources and to later grant access to those resources upon those resources becoming available. Methods of allocating heterogeneous resources are also provided, as are other aspects.
