Grid economy models have long been considered as a promising alternative for the classical Grid resource management, due to their dynamic and decentralized nature, and because the financial valuation of resources and services is inherent in any such model. In particular, auction models are widely used in the existing Grid research, as they are easy to implement and are shown to successfully manage...
The drift towards new challenges in grid computing, including the utility grid paradigm and service level agreements based on quality-of-service guarantees, implies the need for new, robust, multi-criteria scheduling algorithms that can be applied by the user in an intuitive way. Multiple scheduling criteria addressed by the related grid research include execution time, the cost of running a task...
We propose a novel approach for bi-criteria scheduling of scientific workflows on the grid, using dynamic programming to balance the trade-off between the two contradicting criteria. We determine the primary and the secondary criterion, and establish a flexible limit for the primary criterion. We identify different classes of criteria and adjust the solution for different variants of the problem
