Cloud Computing Resource Scheduling:Policy and Algorithm
Chu Y · 2013
Resource allocation and scheduling(RAS)are the key issue of cloud computing,and their policy and algorithm have a direct effect on cloud performance and cost.Firstly,four hot topics of cloud RAS,locality-aware task scheduling,reliability-aware scheduling,energy-aware RAS,and workflow scheduling,were presented.And then these fours were classified into three parts according to different optimization objectives(performance and cost),and various existing RAS policies and algorithms were discussed in details.In addition,a comparative analysis of four problems with their representative algorithms was made.Finally,some future research directions of cloud RAS were pointed out.
