Description
Summary:Cloud computing provides on demand access to a large pool of heterogeneous computational and storage resources to users over the internet. Optimal scheduling mechanisms are needed for the efficient management of these heterogeneous resources. The optimal scheduler can improve the Quality of Services (QoS) as well as maintaining efficiency and fairness among these tasks. In large scale distributed systems, the performance of these scheduling algorithms is crucial for better efficiency. Now the cloud customers are charged based upon the amount of resources they are consumed or held in reserve. Comparing these scheduling algorithms from different perspectives is needed for further improvement. This paper provides a comparative study about different resource allocation, load balancing and virtual machine consolidation algorithms in cloud computing. These algorithms have been evaluated in terms of their ability to provide QoS for the tasks and Service Level Agreement (SLA) guarantee amongst the jobs served. This study identifies current and future research directions in this area for QoS enabled cloud scheduling.
