Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods may provide a set of networked computational resources such as nodes that may be arranged in a hierarchy. A hierarchy of performance balancers receives performance samples from the computational resources beneath them and uses the performance samples to conduct a statistical analysis of variations in their performance. In one embodiment, the performance balancers steer power from faster resources to slower resources in order to enhance their performance, including in parallel processing.
