Abstract

Nowadays, grid computing is a recognized name in the area of computation. Grid computing provides a strong platform for the jobs demanding high computational power. Resource scheduling and job scheduling are two broad categories of grid computing. A lot of work has been done in this area. In this paper, we present a new job scheduling algorithm which focuses on standard round-robin algorithm with the addition of new “Enhancement Factor”. The experimental evaluation shows that the proposed algorithm reduces Average Waiting Time and Average Turnaround Time, and it takes very less time to process the jobs than other existing algorithms.
