Scheduling Scheme for Cloud Computing based on Workflow Characteristics  

Kim, Jeong-Won (Dept. of Computer Engineering, Silla University)
Abstract
Cloud computing has got great popularity in recent times because users can easily access its resources as well as service providers can use efficiently use its resources. By the way, cloud computing are composed of heterogeneous resources and workflows of user application have various characteristics. So, the main goal of this paper is to design new efficient workflow scheduling algorithm, which classifies workflows through their importance degree and allocates resources to each workflow based on QoS metrics such as responsibility, cost and load balancing. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can improve the responsibility as well as availability of resource.
