A Survey on Various Scheduling Algorithms in Cloud Environment

Cloud computing involves group of remote servers and software networks that allows online access to computer services or resources and centralized data storage. It enables the users and the consumers to use various applications provided by the cloud provider. The scheduling algorithm is employed for the purpose of mapping the requests of users to the appropriate resources available. One of the most challenging problems in Cloud computing is the scheduling the problem of minimizing the cost of task executions. In this paper, different types of scheduling algorithms have been surveyed and comparison based on various parameters has been made.
