The problem is common in many real-time and workflow-based applications, where tasks with fixed stage number and linearly dependency are executed on scalable cloud resources with multiple price options. The challenges lie in proposing effective, stable, and robust algorithms under stochastic and fuzzy tasks. A triangle fuzzy number-based model is formulated. Two metrics are explored: the cost and the degree of satisfaction. An iterated heuristic framework is proposed to periodically schedule tasks, which consists of a task collection and a fuzzy task scheduling phases. Two task collection strategies are presented and two task prioritization strategies are employed. In order to achieve a high satisfaction degree, deadline constraints are defined at both job and task levels. By designing delicate experiments and applying sophisticated statistical techniques, experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is more effective and robust than the two existing methods.This work was supported by the National Key Research and Development Program of China (No. 2017YFB1400800), the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Nos. 61672297, 61872077, and 61832004), the Natural Science Foundation of the Jiangsu Higher Education Institutions of China (Grant No. 18KJB520039) and the National Science Foundation for Post-doctoral Scientists of China (Grant No. 2018M640510).
