An Optimal Job Scheduling Algorithm in Computational Grids

Grid computing is an emerging technology that involves coordinating and sharing of resources to carry out complex computational problems. Resource management and scheduling plays a crucial role in achieving high utilization of resources in grid computing environments. Due to heterogeneity of resources, scheduling an application is significantly complicated and challenging task in grid system. Most of the researches in this area are mainly focused on to improve the performance of the grid system. To achieve the performance in grid environment, many Job scheduling algorithms are implemented. Existing approaches of Grid scheduling doesn't give much emphasis on the performance of a Grid scheduler. This paper
