1. A method of managing resources, said method comprising the steps of:

  • providing a finite number of resources for servicing requests;

    quantifying, beyond mere binary quantification, “

    N”

    number of attributes of said resources, wherein N is at least one, thereby providing N number of quantified attributes;

    receiving at least one request for at least one of said resources;

    quantifying, beyond mere binary quantification, at least one attribute desired by said at least one request, thereby providing a quantified at least one attribute desired by said at least one request;

    based at least in part on said quantifying steps, determining at least one suitable resource for servicing said at least one request; and

    plotting said “

    N”

    number of quantified attributes within an N-dimensional space.
