Zusammenfassung:Computing assemblies, such as blade servers, can be housed in rackmount systems of data centers for execution of applications for remote users. These applications can include games and other various user software. In one example, a method of operating a data processing system includes receiving requests for execution of a plurality of applications, and identifying estimated power demands for execution of each of the plurality of applications. The method also includes determining power limit properties for a plurality of computing modules capable of executing the plurality of applications, and selecting among the plurality of computing modules to execute ones of the plurality of applications based at least on the power limit properties and the estimated power demands.
