This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cloud computing is a new prototype for enterprises which can effectively assist the execution of tasks. Task scheduling is a major constraint which greatly influences the performance of cloud computing environments. The cloud service providers and consumers have different objectives and requirements. For the moment, the load and availability of the resources vary dynamically with time. Therefore, in the cloud environment scheduling resources is a complicated problem. Moreover, task scheduling algorithm is a method by which tasks are allocated or matched to data center resources. All task scheduling problems in a cloud computing environment come under the class of combinatorial optimization problems which decide searching for an optimal solution in a finite set of potential solutions. For a combinatorial optimization problem in bounded time, exact algorithms always guarantee to find an optimal solution for every finite size instance. These kinds of problems are NP-Hard in nature. Moreover, for the large scale applications, an exact algorithm needs unexpected computation time which leads to an increase in computational burden. However, the absolutely perfect scheduling algorithm does not exist, because of conflicting scheduling objectives. Therefore, to overcome this constraint heuristic algorithms are proposed. In workflow scheduling problems, search space grows exponentially with the problem size. Heuristics optimization as a search method is useful in local search to find good solutions quickly in a restricted area. However, the heuristics optimization methods do not provide a suitable solution for the scheduling problem. Researchers have shown good performance of metaheuristic algorithms in a wide range of complex problems. In order to minimize the defined objective of task resource mapping, improved versions of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are put in place to enhance scheduling performance with less computational burden. In recent years, PSO has been successfully applied to solve different kinds of problems. It is famous for its easy realization and fast convergence, while suffering from the possibility of early convergence to local optimums. In the proposed Improved Particle Swarm Optimization (IPSO) algorithm, whenever early convergence occurs, the original particle swarm would be considered the worst positions an individual particle and worst positions global particle the whole swarm have experienced.

Book excerpt: During the past decades scheduling has been among the most studied op- mization problemsanditisstillanactiveareaofresearch!Schedulingappears in many areas of science, engineering and industry and takes di?erent forms depending on the restrictions and optimization criteria of the operating en- ronments [8]. For instance, in optimization and computer science, scheduling has been de?ned as “the allocation of tasks to resources over time in order to achieve optimality in one or more objective criteria in an e?cient way” and in production as “production schedule, i. e. , the planning of the production or the sequence of operations according to which jobs pass through machines and is optimal with respect to certain optimization criteria. ” Although there is a standardized form of stating any scheduling problem, namely “e?cient allocation ofn jobs onm machines –which can process no more than one activity at a time– with the objective to optimize some - jective function of the job completion times”, scheduling is in fact a family of problems. Indeed, several parameters intervene in the problem de?nition: (a) job characteristics (preemptive or not, precedence constraints, release dates, etc. ); (b) resource environment (single vs. parallel machines, un- lated machines, identical or uniform machines, etc. ); (c) optimization criteria (minimize total tardiness, the number of late jobs, makespan, ?owtime, etc. ; maximize resource utilization, etc. ); and, (d) scheduling environment (static vs. dynamic,intheformerthenumberofjobstobeconsideredandtheirready times are available while in the later the number of jobs and their charact- istics change over time).

Book excerpt: The majority of published static scheduling algorithms are only suited to homogeneous processor networks. Little effort has been put into developing scheduling algorithms specifically for heterogeneous processors networks. It is easy to prove, using counterexamples, that the best existing heterogeneous scheduling algorithms [1, 12] generate sub-optimal schedules. Hence, there is much room for the development of better scheduling algorithms for heterogeneous processor networks. This report presents and tests a novel hybrid scheduling algorithm (H2GS) that utilizes both deterministic and stochastic approaches to the problem of scheduling. H2GS is a two-phase algorithm. The first phase implements a heuristic algorithm (LDCP) that identifies one near-optimal schedule. This schedule is used, together with a small number of other schedules as the initial population of the second customized genetic algorithm (called GATS). The GATS algorithm proceeds to evolve even better schedules. The most important contributions of our research are: (i) the development of a new hybrid algorithm, which primes a customized genetic algorithm with a near-optimal schedule produced by a heuristic (LDCP); (ii) The hybrid algorithm succeeds in generating task schedules with completion times that are, on average, 6.2% shorter than those produced by the best existing scheduling algorithm, on the same set of test data.

Download or read book Task Scheduling for Parallel Systems written by Oliver Sinnen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-05-04 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new model for task scheduling that dramatically improves the efficiency of parallel systems Task scheduling for parallel systems can become a quagmire of heuristics, models, and methods that have been developed over the past decades. The author of this innovative text cuts through the confusion and complexity by presenting a consistent and comprehensive theoretical framework along with realistic parallel system models. These new models, based on an investigation of the concepts and principles underlying task scheduling, take into account heterogeneity, contention for communication resources, and the involvement of the processor in communications. For readers who may be new to task scheduling, the first chapters are essential. They serve as an excellent introduction to programming parallel systems, and they place task scheduling within the context of the program parallelization process. The author then reviews the basics of graph theory, discussing the major graph models used to represent parallel programs. Next, the author introduces his task scheduling framework. He carefully explains the theoretical background of this framework and provides several examples to enable readers to fully understand how it greatly simplifies and, at the same time, enhances the ability to schedule. The second half of the text examines both basic and advanced scheduling techniques, offering readers a thorough understanding of the principles underlying scheduling algorithms. The final two chapters address communication contention in scheduling and processor involvement in communications. Each chapter features exercises that help readers put their new skills into practice. An extensive bibliography leads to additional information for further research. Finally, the use of figures and examples helps readers better visualize and understand complex concepts and processes. Researchers and students in distributed and parallel computer systems will find that this text dramatically improves their ability to schedule tasks accurately and efficiently.
