How does ApplicationMaster know its resource requirements before it launches 
tasks? IMHO, the biggest problem of resources allocation is that we could't 
determine the CPU/memory/disk/network requirements unless when the task is 
running. User defined requirements by the configuration files are always 
improper. 
>From your words, the architecture allows end-users to implement any

>Even common users can deploy their ApplicationMaster over the cluster they 
>have no any permissions on that? Can you illustrate how to achieve it?
