Algorithm of multi-agent dispatching resources in heterogeneous cloud environments

The work is devoted to a solution for the problem of adaptive scheduling (allocation) of resources in a cloud computing environment (CCE), which includes heterogeneous computing resources in its set. The environment is designed for solving large-scale scientific problems on a flow entering at random times, and consisting of a set of interconnected information subtasks. In the present work, the previously proposed by authors method of multi-agent scheduling CCE is extended to general case when all resources of the CCE have different performance for solution of various problems, and various bandwidth communication channel with the cloud infrastructure. Under these conditions, the formal staging for problem scheduling in CCE is given and the authors suggest principles to solve it using a variety of software agents, which are physically implemented in the individual computing resources and representing their “interests” in the process of scheduling. We also propose the algorithm for multi-agent software agent manager, which provides adaptive distribution of all available at the current time computer resources for solution of the problems related to their actual performance and bandwidth of communication channels. The results of experimental studies using this heterogeneous programming model have shown the efficiency of proposed approaches.
