The hydraulic system safety shut off valve is a safety valve for use immediately downstream from a hydraulic pressure power supply line and before the operational control valves and subsystems. A first comparison circuit, provided for high-speed signal responses, includes voltage dividing resistors, a voltage comparator, and a reference voltage source, while a second comparison circuit, provided for low-speed signal responses, includes voltage dividing resistors, a capacitor, a voltage comparator, and a reference voltage source. Next, the method comprises logically OR’ing the node range with a global range, generating a list of acceptable resources on which to start and the timeframe at which to start and creating reservations according to the list of acceptable resources for the resources in the group of computing devices and associated job offsets.
