Abstract

Lowering the energy usage of datacenters is a challenging and complex issue because computing applications centres resources need to be managed in an energy-efficient manner to drive Green Cloud computing and data are growing so quickly that increasingly larger servers and disks are needed to process them fast enough within the required time period. It is essential for ensuring that the future growth of Cloud computing is sustainable. Otherwise, Cloud computing with increasingly pervasive front-end client devices interacting with back-end data has been proposed in this work using two scheduling algorithms i.e. Multilevel feedback scheduling and Priority based Scheduling. The results evaluation will be done on the basis of total energy consumed during running of tasks.
