Abstract
Cloud computing provides reliable, customized and dynamic services using very large scalable and virtualized resources over the Internet. Due to novelty of cloud computing field, there is no standard task scheduling algorithm used in cloud environment. Especially that in cloud, there is a high communication cost that prevents well known task schedulers to be applied in large scale distributed environment. Some intensive researches have been done in the area of job scheduling of cloud computing. The scheduling algorithms should order the jobs in a way where balance between improving the performance and quality of service and at the same time maintaining the efficiency and fairness among the jobs. This paper aims at studying various scheduling algorithms recently proposed in cloud computing.
