Scheduling algorithms for efficient execution of stream workflow applications in multicloud environments

Big data processing applications are becoming more and more complex. They are no more monolithic in nature but instead they are composed of decoupled analytical processes in the form of a workflow. One type of such workflow applications is stream workflow application, which integrates multiple streaming big data applications to support decision making. Each analytical component of these applications runs continuously and processes data streams whose velocity will depend on several factors such as network bandwidth and processing rate of parent analytical component. As a consequence, the execution of these applications on cloud environments requires advanced scheduling techniques that adhere to end user's requirements in terms of data processing and deadline for decision making. In this paper, we propose two Multicloud scheduling and resource allocation techniques for efficient execution of stream workflow applications on Multicloud environments while adhering to workflow application and user performance requirements and reducing execution cost. Results showed that the proposed genetic algorithm is an adequate and effective for all experiments

Reliable and efficient webserver management for task scheduling in edge-cloud platform

The development in the field of cloud webserver management for the execution of the workflow and meeting the quality-of-service (QoS) prerequisites in a distributed cloud environment has been a challenging task. Though, internet of things (IoT) of work presented for the scheduling of the workflow in a heterogeneous cloud environment. Moreover, the rapid development in the field of cloud computing like edge-cloud computing creates new methods to schedule the workflow in a heterogenous cloud environment to process different tasks like IoT, event-driven applications, and different network applications. The current methods used for workflow scheduling have failed to provide better trade-offs to meet reliable performance with minimal delay. In this paper, a novel web server resource management framework is presented namely the reliable and efficient webserver management (REWM) framework for the edge-cloud environment. The experiment is conducted on complex bioinformatic workflows; the result shows the significant reduction of cost and energy by the proposed REWM in comparison with standard webserver management methodology
