# Quality of Service (QoS)

**Cost Factors:** There are several combinatory factors in determining the processing cost of Cerebrum, including:

* GPU Type and Processing Power: the stronger a GPU used is, the more money each unit of processing will cost
* Execution Duration: the longer a job execution takes, the more native tokens are spent.
* Data Storage Requirements: The amount of data storage amount needed for processing determines the cost of the process.

**Native Token Integration:** for access, users pay a certain amount of our native tokens, or its equivalent in some USD stable coin, for access to the resources. The price derives from the elements outlined above that ensure a fairly and transparently priced service.

**QoS Tiers:** Cerebrum offers various service tiers at varying costs, which allow for a range of user needs.

* Standard Tier: Baseline processing speed for a low cost; suitable for non-critical tasks.
* Priority Tier: Expedites task execution for users willing to pay a premium, ideal for time-sensitive projects.

**Deadline Setting:** Users can specify deadlines for task completion within the Cerebrum Cloud interface. The system prioritizes tasks based on deadlines and allocated QoS tiers, ensuring efficient resource allocation.
