Scheduling in Cloud Computing: A Review

Abstract

Cloud computing is an emerging technique that describes new class of network. Cloud computing share resources connected to each other via a link and uses concept of distributed computing, grid computing, utility computing and virtualization. Scheduling in cloud computing is interest of area to schedule processes that is a difficult task. Scheduling in cloud computing is to manage and control processes. Basically selection of scheduling method depends on user requirement, choosing the right scheduling method can cause maximum packet transmission, can control packet loss and can increase CPU utilization. This paper describes different scheduling method used in cloud computing such that First Come First Serve (FCFS), Priority Queue (PQ), Round Robin (RR), Multi Level Feedback Queue (MLFQ), Multi Level Queue (MLQ).

Keywords: Cloud Computing, Scheduling, Job, Resources, Processes, Task.
