Abstract

Green cloud computing has become a major study concern in both industry and academia. However, the uncertainty of virtual machines' performance has been overlooked in traditional work, thus leaving a large gap between the result and practice of scheduling. In this paper, we propose a novel scheduling algorithm named energy-efficient scheduling for real-time tasks by rolling-horizon in uncertain cloud (ERRHU). It aims at scheduling real-time tasks to virtual machines (VMs), as well as scaling up and down the computing resources according to the system workload to reduce energy consumption. We conduct extensive experiments to compare ERRHU with prior algorithms.
