Abstract

The objective of the task scheduling is to achieve the minimum execution time of all the tasks with their precedence requirements satisfied. Although several task scheduling heuristics for the heterogeneous environment have been presented in the literature, they overlook the various type of network and do not perform efficiently on such an environment. We present the new scheduling heuristic which is named the 'k-Depth Look-ahead.' The proposed heuristic takes the network heterogeneity into consideration and our experimental study shows that the proposed heuristic generates a better schedule especially under the condition that the network resource costs high.
