Abstract
Cloud computing has gained popularity in recent times. Cloud computing is internet based computing, whereby shared resources, software and information are provided to computers and other devices on demand, like a public utility. Cloud computing is technology that uses the internet and central remote servers to maintain data and applications. This technology allows consumers and businesses to use application without installation and access their personal files at any computer with internet access. The main aim of my work is to study various problems, issues and types of scheduling algorithms for cloud workflows as well as on designing new workflow algorithms for cloud Workflow management system. The proposed algorithms are implemented on real time cloud which is developed using Microsoft .Net Technologies. The algorithms are compared with each other on the basis of parameters like Total execution time, Execution time for algorithm, Estimated execution time. Experimental results generated via simulation shown that Algorithm 2 is much better than Algorithm 1, as it reduced makespan time.
