A Resource Allocation Task is an allocation task that is an organizational task that allocates resources to achieve allocation objectives within system constraints.
- AKA: Resource Assignment, Resource Distribution, Resource Provisioning.
- Context:
- Task Input: Resource Pool, Resource Allocation Requests, Resource Allocation Constraints
- Task Output: Resource Assignment Plan, Resource Allocation Schedule, Resource Allocation Decisions
- Task Performance Measure: Resource Allocation Performance Metrics such as resource allocation efficiency, resource utilization rate, resource allocation fairness metrics, and resource allocation cost effectiveness

- It can typically optimize Resource Allocation Distribution through resource allocation algorithms and resource allocation optimization methods.
- It can typically manage Resource Allocation Constraints through resource allocation capacity planning and resource allocation requirement analysis.
- It can typically handle Resource Allocation Conflicts through resource allocation priority systems and resource allocation conflict resolution.
- It can typically ensure Resource Allocation Availability through resource allocation scheduling systems and resource allocation reservation protocols.
- It can typically balance Resource Allocation Demand with resource allocation supply through resource allocation equilibrium mechanisms.
- ...
- It can often implement Resource Allocation Tracking through resource allocation monitoring systems and resource allocation usage analytics.
- It can often support Resource Allocation Sharing through resource allocation policyes and resource allocation access control.
- It can often enable Resource Allocation Recovery through resource allocation deallocation processes and resource allocation reclamation mechanisms.
- It can often adapt Resource Allocation Strategyes based on resource allocation feedback data.
- ...
- It can range from being an Offline Resource Allocation Task to being an Online Resource Allocation Task, depending on its resource allocation timing constraint.
- It can range from being a Centralized Resource Allocation Task to being a Distributed Resource Allocation Task, depending on its resource allocation control structure.
- It can range from being a Static Resource Allocation Task to being a Dynamic Resource Allocation Task, depending on its resource allocation flexibility level.
- It can range from being a Scarce Resource Allocation Task to being a Abundant Resource Allocation Task, depending on its resource allocation availability ratio.
- It can range from being a Manual Resource Allocation Task to being an Automated Resource Allocation Task, depending on its resource allocation automation level.
- It can range from being a Single-Resource Allocation Task to being a Multi-Resource Allocation Task, depending on its resource allocation type diversity.
- It can range from being a Deterministic Resource Allocation Task to being a Stochastic Resource Allocation Task, depending on its resource allocation uncertainty level.
- ...
- It can maintain Resource Allocation Efficiency through resource allocation optimization strategy.
- It can ensure Resource Allocation Fairness through resource allocation equity policy.
- It can support Resource Allocation Scaling through resource allocation demand management.
- It can enable Resource Allocation Flexibility through resource allocation reallocation mechanisms.
- It can provide Resource Allocation Transparency through resource allocation reporting systems.

- Computing Resource Allocation Tasks, such as:
- Counter-Example(s):
- Resource Discovery Task, which identifies available resource opportunityes rather than allocating existing resource pools.
- Resource Monitoring Task, which tracks resource usage patterns rather than making resource distribution decisions.
- Resource Planning Task, which forecasts future resource needs rather than performing immediate resource allocation.
- Resource Creation Task, which generates new resource capacity rather than distributing available resources.
- Resource Optimization Task, which improves resource efficiency without changing resource allocation.
- Resource Valuation Task, which assesses resource worth rather than determining resource assignment.

- Resource allocation is the assignment of available resources to various uses. In the context of an entire economy, resources can be allocated by various means, such as markets or central planning. In project management, resource allocation or resource management is the scheduling of activities and the resources required by those activities while taking into consideration both the resource availability and the project time.
