Novel approaches for scheduling task graphs in heterogeneous distributed computing environment

الملخص EN

Distributed heterogeneous computing environment comprises of diverse set of interconnected resources that are capable of performing computationally complex tasks efficiently.

In order to exploit the high performance of such a system, the task scheduling problem demands for the efficient mapping of the tasks.

Because of its fundamental importance, the problem has been studied extensively and several algorithms have been proposed.

In this paper, we propose two novel approaches for the task scheduling problem and compare the proposed work on the basis of randomly generated task graphs with the wellknown existing algorithms.

The simulation results elucidate on the basis of different cost and performance metrics that for most of the scenarios, the proposed approaches outperform the existing ones considerably.
