A computing apparatus comprising: one or more processors; at least one memory device coupled with the one or more processors; and a data communications interface operably associated with the one or more processors, wherein the at least one memory device contains a plurality of program instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing apparatus to: receive, from a resource allocation demand server via the data communications interface, a resource allocation request which includes task information based on a task schedule, a time period including a plurality of time intervals, a number of resources available during each time interval, a number of nodes available during each time interval, and adjacency constraints for each adjacent node of the number of nodes; in response to the resource allocation request, for each time interval of the time period: determine a first number of tasks to be processed in a task queue within the time interval based on the task information; determine a second number of tasks from the task queue that are unprocessed after a time interval that immediately precedes the time interval; determine, based on the adjacency constraints for each adjacent node for the number of nodes, a resource allocation constraint for each resource; and determine a subset of the number of nodes to be assigned to each resource in the time interval based on: (i) the first number of tasks, (ii) the second number of tasks, and (iii) the resource allocation constraint for each resource; and provide, to the resource allocation demand server via the data communications interface, a resource allocation schedule which includes the subset of the number of nodes assigned to each resource for each time interval of the time period. one or more processors;
