AuthorScheduling schemeDrawbacks

Sahni and Vidyarthi [4]Cost-effective deadline constraint dynamic scheduling algorithmVM failures increase the workload of other VMs and affect the execution time
Tsai et al. [5]Hyper-heuristic scheduling algorithmHigh overhead of connection
Zhu et al. [6]Agent-based scheduling algorithm in virtualized clouds (ANGEL)Nonconsideration of communication and dispatching time reducing performance
Zhu et al. [7]Evolutionary multiobjective (EMO) workflow schedulingNonconsideration of monetary costs and time overhead does not improve performance
Zhang et al. [8]Phase and resource information-aware scheduler for MapReduce (PRISM)Deadlines are not specified
Zhu et al. [9]Energy aware rolling-horizon (EARH) optimization based schedulingLack of updation in number of VM cycles
Maguluri and Srikant [10]Throughput-optimal scheduling & load-balancing algorithmUtilizing queue lengths in weights is based on assumption
Zuo et al. [11]Self-adaptive learning particle swarm optimization- (SLPSO-) based schedulingLack of priority to deadline constraint tasks results in task failures
Su et al. [12]Cost efficient task schedulingDoes not consider the completion time and cost (computation cost and communication cost)
