One of the main features of High Throughput Computing systems is the availability of high power

processing resources. Cloud Computing systems can offer these features through concepts like Pay-Per-Use and Quality ...

Nowadays, cloud computing and other distributed computing systems have been developed to support various

types of workflows in applications. Due to the restrictions in the use of one cloud provider, the concept of ...

Abstract—Workflow scheduling on utility Grids is a complex

multi-objective optimization problem which tries to optimize

several scheduling criteria such as execution time and cost.

One common approach to the problem...

cheduling scientific workflows of communicating tasks is the process of mapping tasks of the workflow to the cloud resources and directly or indirectly determining when to execute each task. Different objectives such as ...

A workflow represents a complex activity that
