In a grid computing, task execution time is dependent on the machine to which it is assigned
and task precedence constraints represented by a directed acyclic graph. In this paper we
propose a hybrid assignment strategy of dependent tasks in Grids which integrated static
and dynamic assignment technologies. We consider that a grid computing is a set of clusters
formed by a set of computing elements and a cluster manager. Our main objective is to
arrive at task assignment that could achieve minimum response time and to reduce the …

A computational grid is a widespread computing environment that provides huge
computational power for large-scale distributed applications. One of the most important
issues in such an environment is resource management. Task assignment as a part of
resource management has a considerable effect on the grid middleware performance. In
grid computing, task execution time is dependent on the machine to which it is assigned,
and task precedence constraints are represented by a directed acyclic graph. This paper …
