Claim 6:
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: determining an account balance for the user based on an amount of money that was previously paid by the user for system resources; and selecting the model implementation based on the account balance, wherein an estimated amount of money that the user can be charged for use of the selected model implementation does not result in a negative account balance.
