Seminar topic: “Presentation topic: Development of methods and technologies of cloud resources provisioning for composite applications in the “workflow-as-a-service” paradigm”
Speaker: Artem Bulkhak (NRU MPEI)
This work addresses the problem of joint dynamic scheduling of independent, heterogeneous workflows and cloud resource management, aiming to minimize usage costs while meeting the deadlines of users of a “Workflow-as-a-Service” platform. A heuristic method is proposed for decomposing the initial optimization problem; it involves the preliminary construction of task execution time intervals, the dynamic batching of ready tasks, and their real-time assignment to virtual machines. Simulation results for the proposed solution demonstrate a reduction in cloud infrastructure usage costs compared to similar algorithms and confirm the applicability of the proposed approach to online scheduling.
