Comparative Analysis of different Algorithms for scheduling of tasks in Cloud Environments

Cloud computing provides on demand scalable resources for large scale distributed computing tasks. Scheduling of the large scale user tasks plays a significant role in improving performance of the cloud services. This paper presents a performance analysis of STFQ (Start Time Fair Queuing), WRR (Weighted Round Robin)and BVT (Borrowed Virtual Time) task scheduling algorithms for the cloud environment. The simulation results using CloudSim are used for comparing the performance of these three algorithms.
