Abstract

In this work, a job-flow scheduling approach for grid virtual organizations (VOs) is proposed and studied. Users’ and resource providers’ preferences, VOs internal policies, resources geographical distribution along with local private utilization impose specific requirements for efficient scheduling according to different, usually contradictive, criteria. With increasing level of resources utilization, the set of available resources and corresponding decision space are reduced. This further complicates the problem of efficient scheduling. In order to improve overall scheduling efficiency, we propose an anticipation scheduling approach based on a cyclic scheduling scheme. It generates a near optimal but infeasible scheduling solution and includes a special replication procedure for efficient and feasible resources allocation. Anticipation scheduling is compared with the general cycle scheduling scheme and conservative backfilling using such criteria as average jobs’ start and finish times as well as users’ and VO economic criteria: total execution time and cost.
