There are probably other patches floating around, but Process Resource
Management (PRM) for Linux is/was one approach to do just that:

	http://resourcemanagement.unixsolutions.hp.com/WaRM/prm_linux/

The kernel patches available from this URL are pretty old (up to
2.4.6, as far as I could see), and I'm not sure what the future plans
for PRM on Linux are.  Perhaps someone else can provide more details.
