| Summary: | A method for resource allocation in a data center is disclosed which employs modeling techniques that enable resource allocation in large-scale data centers. A method for resource allocation according to the present techniques includes providing a model for resource allocation which is adapted to a resource topology of a data center and an architecture of an application to be deployed in the data center. A set of resources in the data center are allocated to the application using the model in response to a set of resource requirements of the application and a set of attributes of the resources in the data center such that communication delay among the resources allocated to the application is minimized. Techniques are disclosed for decomposing the model into a set of more tractable programming models which may be solved using available mathematical programming solvers. |
