A distributed heuristic for decentralized workflow scheduling in global Grids
Mustafizur Rahman, Rajiv Kumar Ranjan, Rajkumar Buyya · 2009
Efficient scheduling is a key concern for the effectual execution of performance driven Grid applications, such as workflows. Many list heuristics have been developed for scheduling workflows in centralized Grid environment. However, in this paper, we present a distributed list heuristic for decentralized scheduling of workflow applications in global Grids. The simulation results show that the proposed scheduling approach is scalable with respect to increased workload on the system.
