Task Scheduling

The term “cloud computing (CC)” has been extensively studied and utilized by major corporations since its inception. Within the realm of cloud computing, various research topics and perspectives have been explored, including resource management, cloud security, and energy efficiency. This paper explores the intersection of data quality and business process management within the context of cloud computing. Specifically, it examines how Quality of Service (QoS)-driven task scheduling algorithms in cloud environments can enhance data quality and optimize business processes. Cloud computing still faces the significant challenge of determining the most effective way to schedule tasks and manage available resources. We need effective scheduling strategies to manage these resources because of the scale and dynamic resource provisioning in modern data centers. The purpose of this work is to provide an overview of the various task scheduling methods that have been utilized in the cloud computing environment to date. An attempt has been made to categorize current methods, investigate issues, and identify important challenges present in this area. Our data reveals that 34% of researchers are focusing on makespan for QoS (Quality of Service) metrics, 17% on cost, 15% on load balancing, 10% on deadline, and 9% on energy usage. Other criteria for the Quality of Service (QoS) parameter contribute far less than the ones mentioned above. According to this study, scheduling algorithms commonly used by researchers include the genetic algorithm in bio-inspired systems and particle swarm optimization in swarm intelligence 80% of the time. According to the available literature, 70% of the studies have utilized CloudSim as their simulation tool of choice. Our findings suggest that current methodologies mainly employ genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization, with CloudSim being a popular simulation tool. Ongoing work emphasizes refining scheduling strategies to enhance resource management in dynamic data center environments, providing crucial insights into future quality-of-service (QoS)-driven scheduling algorithms for cloud computing.  

  Background: Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) utilizing and active interface with 5G networks has become the new frontier to tackling problems of latency and energy efficiency, interference, and resource management. Although prior researches explained the benefits of UAV integrated networks; overall assessment of various parameters and cases is still scarce. Objective: The article seeks to assess the performance of UAV integrated 5G network in terms of latency, power, signal quality, task coordination and coverage optimization and to ascertain the efficiency of optimization algorithms in the improvement of the integrated 5G network. Methods: Emulations were done in MATLAB and NS3 platforms in urban / suburban / emergency call settings. Latency, power consumption, SINR, and completion time were the performance indicator chosen in the paper. Optimization algorithms: Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Genetic Algorithm (GA), and the Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) is evaluated in terms of Convergence time and Solution quality. Results : UAV-aided networks showed 36.7% and 29.2 % improvement in latency and energy consumption, while 33.6 % enhancement in SINR. MOEA offered the best results with 98.3% solution quality, and the PSO being the most convergence oriented. Minor deviations between simulation and real results highlight the need for adaptive mechanisms. Conclusion: The results presented focus on the enough potential of UAV-assisted 5G networks and their potential influence on improving performances in case of different criteria. Further research should focus on successfully implementing and deploying the proposed solutions and broadening the context of study to include 6G technologies.
