Abstract

Recently cloud computing has gained popularity among e-Science environments as a high performance computing platform. From the viewpoint of the system, applications can be submitted by users at any moment in time and with distinct QoS requirements. To achieve higher rates of successful applications attending to their QoS demands, an effective resource allocation (scheduling) strategy between workflow's tasks and available resources is required. Several algorithms have been proposed for QoS workflow scheduling, but most of them use search-based strategies that generally have a higher time complexity, making them less useful in realistic scenarios. In this paper, we present a heuristic scheduling algorithm with quadratic time complexity that considers two important constraints for QoS-based workflow scheduling, time and cost, named Deadline-Budget Workflow Scheduling (DBWS) for cloud environments. Performance evaluation of some well-known scientific workflows shows that the DBWS algorithm accomplishes both constraints with higher success rate in comparison to the current state-of-the-art heuristic-based approaches.
