"A novel PageRank-based fault handling strategy for workflow scheduling" by Fei Xie, Jun Yan et al.
Unexpected faults result in unscheduled cloud outage, which negatively affects the completion of workflow tasks in the cloud. This paper presents a novel PageRank-based fault handling strategy to rescue workflow tasks at the faulty data center. The proposed approach uses a holistic view and considers the task attributes, the timeline scenario, and the overall cloud performance. A priority assignment system is developed based on the modified PageRank algorithm to prioritise workflow tasks. A min-max normalization method is applied to select the target data center and match the timeline at this ...
