Abstract:
1. A system comprising: a wireless network comprising a plurality of clusters; wherein each cluster comprises a set of nodes including a cluster head node; wherein each node includes at least one resource; wherein when an initiator node in a local cluster included in the wireless network receives an admission request to execute an application comprising a set of tasks, the initiator node forwards the admission request to a local cluster head node for the local cluster; wherein when the admission request is forwarded to the local cluster head node, the local cluster head node requests that at least one of the set of nodes included in the local cluster provide resource availability information to the initiator node; wherein the initiator node attempts to map the set of tasks to a subset of the nodes included in the local cluster using the resource availability information received from nodes in the local cluster; and wherein, if the initiator node is unable to map the set of tasks to the subset of nodes included in the local cluster:
