Synopsis
The project focuses on leveraging machine learning (ML) techniques to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of workflow scheduling in distributed computing environments. Workflow scheduling involves allocating tasks to computational resources (e.g., CPUs, GPUs, or cloud servers) to optimize performance metrics such as execution time, resource utilization, and cost. Traditional optimization methods often struggle with the complexity and dynamic nature of modern workflows, especially in large-scale systems like cloud datacenters or edge computing networks. By integrating ML into the optimization process, the project aims to develop smarter, adaptive, and more efficient scheduling solutions.
The project has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and scalability of workflow execution in distributed computing environments. This could benefit a wide range of applications, from scientific research and data analytics to business processes and IoT systems. The project contributes to the growing field of AI-driven optimization, offering solutions that address the limitations of traditional scheduling methods and pave the way for smarter, more responsive computing systems.
