Abstract

The scheduling policy and algorithm of grid workflow determine the effectiveness and efficiency of grid workflow tasks, which is the key technology in grid workflow. Based on the definition of grid workflow tasks dynamic ready queue, critical factor, dynamic factor and prior factor, the grid workflow tasks selection algorithm, resource selection algorithm and tasks allocation algorithm are presented, which constitute the workflow dynamic scheduling with multiple polices. It can handle the dynamism of grid resource. Some simulation experiments on the prototype are implemented and analyzed, which show that the algorithm has the advantage of efficiency and practice.
