Abstract

In the science area, workflow management systems (WMS) coordinate collaborative tasks between researchers of many research organizations. Also, WMS effectively compose the high performance computing system with globally distributed computing resources. In addition, with the maturity of cloud computing technology, many researches try to enhancing the economic feasibility and system tolerability. While executing a workflow application, a workflow scheduler, which is in WMS, should recognize the dynamic status of resources and decide to assign appropriate resource on each task. With the negotiation procedure, users can ask for saving processing cost or shortening completion time. However, satisfying these multiple objectives at the same time is hard to achieve. Therefore, the existing workflow scheduling schemes try to find the near optimal solution with heuristic approaches. In this paper, we propose heuristic workflow scheduling scheme with petri-net workflow modeling, resource type mapping in accordance to workload ratio and policy based task division to guarantee the deadline constraint with minimum budget consumption.
