The distribution of resources is an important scientific and practical task, as it concerns all areas of human activity, the field of information technologies is no exception. A study was conducted, which showed that today there are many approaches to solving the given problem, each of which is characterized by certain features. Known methods of resource allocation are analyzed, their classification is given and it is shown that they are mainly defined as linear programming problems, resource allocation matrices or are implemented on the basis of empirical knowledge. With this in mind, the authors analyzed the mechanisms of the algebra of algorithms, determined their scopes of application, and made a decision regarding their use for modeling the distribution of resources in the field of information technologies. Further work was aimed at building a tree of goals, which made it possible to reflect the general goal and sub-goals that must be ensured in order to effectively allocate resources. An analysis was carried out and development tools were selected. The result of the work was a prototype of the software that implements the modeling of resource distribution using the Balash method and the algorithm algebra apparatus. Further research will be aimed at verifying the operation of the system and designing related modules.
