1. A computer-implemented method for allocating access rights to resources, the method comprising:

  • storing data representing a plurality of access rights to a resource, each access right corresponding to access-right priority data;

    receiving, over a network, a plurality of access-right requests during a first time period, each access-right request of the plurality of access-right requests being from a computing device and being for at least a portion of the plurality of access rights, and each access-right request including one or more conditions;

    determining, based on a request load, an end time of the first time period, the request load being determined based, at least in part on, the plurality of access-right requests received over the network;

    during a second time period beginning after the end time of the first time period, processing the plurality of access-right requests using a processing system, the processing further comprising;

    assigning a priority to each access-right request of the plurality of access-right requests, the assignment of the priority being based on each of the included in the access-right request; and

    associating an access right of the plurality of access rights with a first computing device, the association being based on the assigned priority.
