A competence-based scheduling method for Web computing

摘要

We propose a heuristic scheduling algorithm, called CompetenceBased Method (CBM), to dynamically distribute workload for the taskallocation problem in a Web/Java based computing environment. CBM isdesigned to meet four properties of Web computing: heterogeneity,scalability, centralization, and non-dedication host. CBM can be appliedto both independent and dependent links scheduling problems. Comparedwith the competing algorithms, the experimental results show that theproposed CBM performs faster in parallel time and is close to theoptimal
