Fault-aware scheduling in grid environment based on linear programming

Grid system provides the sharing, selection and aggregation on distributed autonomous resources while it is an error prone environment. So, grid component like scheduler must provide the user's Quality of Service (QoS) requirements by selecting the appropriate resources for user's jobs. In this paper, we have proposed a fault-aware economy scheduling model based on binary integer programming (FES-BIP) to allocate resources to application jobs such that the users' requirements are met while we know the distribution of resource failure in the grid environment. FES-BIP algorithm guarantees optimal resource selection
