Abstract
To support ever-chainging user needs such as large storage volumes, web search, and highperformance computing, numerous companies have expanded their systems to cloud computing servers. Cloud environment systems generally consume large amounts of electrical power, leading to tremendously high operational costs. In addition, they require computing infrastructures to run various real-time applications such as financial analysis, cloud gaming, and web-based real-time services. To represent performance guarantees, the negotiated agreements in real-time computing, expressed as deadline (or latency), can be specified by service level agreements of cloud services between users and cloud server providers. Thus, a number of research works have started focusing on reducing the energy consumption and simultaneously satisfying the temporal constraint in a cloud environment. Although we previously proposed an optimal real-time scheduling algorithm for multiprocessors, it is difficult to use it for cloud environments handling a large number of cloud services because of the high computational complexity of Omega(N-3 logN), where N is the number of tasks. Thus, we introduce a real-time task scheduling algorithm for cloud computing servers, which alleviates the computational complexity of O(N-2) from the complexity of the previous algorithm using a novel flow network-based optimization method. To the best of our knowledge, our scheduling algorithm in a cloud environment, which ensures optimality for real-time tasks and achieves energy savings using dynamic power management simultaneously, is the first in the problem domain. We show that the proposed scheduling algorithm guarantees an optimal schedule for real-time tasks and achieves energy savings simultaneously. Our experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the latest existing algorithms in terms of both time complexity and energy efficiency.
