dc.description.abstract | Cloud computing has been widely adopted due to the flexibility in resource provisioning and on-demand pricing models. Entire clusters of Virtual Machines (VMs) can be dynamically provisioned to meet the computational demands of users. However, from a user’s perspective, it is still challenging to utilise cloud resources efficiently. This is because an overwhelmingly wide variety of resource types with different prices and significant performance variations are available. This paper presents a survey and taxonomy of existing research in optimising the execution of Bag-of-Task applications on cloud resources. A BoT application consists of multiple independent tasks, each of which can be executed by a VM in any order; these applications are widely used by both the scientific communities and commercial organisations. The objectives of this survey are as follows: (i) to provide the reader with a concise understanding of existing research on optimising the execution of BoT applications on the cloud, (ii) to define a taxonomy that categorises current frameworks to compare and contrast them, and (iii) to present current trends and future research directions in the area. | |
