There is an unexpected line break in the middle of the link, so I post it

> In a nutshell, Policy Based Scheduler allows admin to define policies
for different
> physical resources (an aggregate, an availability-zone, or all
> infrastructure) or different (classes of) users. Admin can modify
> (add/remove/modify) any policy in runtime, and the modification effect
is only
> in the target (e.g. the aggregate, the users) that the policy is defined
to. Solver
> Scheduler solves the placement of groups of instances simultaneously by
putting
> all the known information into a integer linear system and uses Integer
Program
> solver to solve the latter. Thus relation between VMs and between VMs-
> computes are all accounted for.
>
> If working together, Policy Based Scheduler can supply the filters and
weighers
> following the policies rules defined for different computes.
> These filters and weighers can be converted into constraints & cost
function for
> Solver Scheduler to solve. More detailed will be found in the doc.
>
> I look forward for comments and hope that we can work it out.
