O článku:
The efficient allocation of jobs to grid resources is indispensable for high performance grid-based applications, and it is a computationally hard problem even when there are no dependencies among jobs. We present in this paper a new tabu search (TS) algorithm for the problem of batch job scheduling on computational grids. We define it as a bi-objective optimization problem, consisting of the minimization of the makespan and flowtime. Our TS is validated versus three other algorithms in the literature for a classical benchmark. We additionally consider some more realistic benchmarks with larger size instances in static and dynamic environments. We show that our TS clearly outperforms the compared algorithms.
