Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In an embodiment, if an estimated time to perform a task by a first virtual machine is less than or equal to an expiration time of the first virtual machine minus the current time, the task is performed by the first virtual machine. If the estimated time to perform the task by the first virtual machine is greater than the expiration time of the first virtual machine minus the current time, a selected virtual machine is selected from among a plurality of virtual machines with a smallest estimated time to perform the task and a request to perform the task is sent to the selected virtual machine.
First claim
