TitleWorkflows scheduling in cloud computing

Yuanqing Xia

Abstract:Cloud computing becomes a promising technology to reduce computation cost by providing users with elastic resources and application-deploying environments as a pay-per- use model. More workflow applications have been moved or are being migrated to the cloud. Scheduling workflows turns to the main bottleneck for increasing resource utilization and quality of service (QoS) for users. In response to these challenges, we propose a Scoring and Dynamic Hierarchy-based NSGA-II (Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II) to minimize both makespan and cost of workflow execution and design a Multi-swarm Co-evolutionary-based Hybrid Optimization (MCHO) algorithm for multiple-workflow scheduling to minimize total makespan and cost while workflow deadline constraints. Furthermore, a, off-line batch workflows (DIWs) and online stream workflows (DSWs)] hybrid dynamic scheduling problem in cloud container services is considered and a scheduling algorithm (SHWSA) is proposed to minimize the cost and improve resource utilization for scheduling these stochastic hybrid workflows. Finally, we develop a cloud workflow and cloud service management platform to support the implementation and implementation of scheduling algorithms and manage workflow efficiently.
