A Scheduling Algorithm for Private Clouds

In contrast with public clouds, private clouds have some unique features, especially when related to workflow scheduling. Of course, the tradeoff problem between power and performance remains to be one of the key concerns. Based on our previous research, in this paper, we propose a hybrid energy-efficient scheduling algorithm using dynamic migration. The experiments show that it can not only reduce the response time, conserve more energy, but also achieve higher level of load balancing.
