Cloud computing makes utility computing possible with pay as you go model. It virtualizes the systems by polling and sharing the resources, thus we need to handle more than one workflow at the same time. Workflow is the standard to represent compute intensive applications in scientific and...

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), consumption of energy is the major challenging issue. If the data is transmitted directly from the node to the base station, it leads to more transmissions and energy consumed also increases if the communication distance is longer. In such cases, to reduce the...

In this paper, a novel scheduling model for a job-shop environment under the effect of sequencing was proposed. The decision variables from a manufacturing company, which consists of two designed parallel machines with zero buffer capacity, each with 10 jobs were investigated. Four scheduling...
