%0 Journal Article %T A priority based on min-min algorithm for reducing make span task scheduling in cloud computing %A Abdulrahman Mohammed Hussein Obaid %A Prasant Kumar Pattnaik %A Santosh Kumar Pani %J - %D 2018 %R 10.14419/ijet.v7i4.16300 %X This paper proposes a two-phase technique for task scheduling which works on third-party broker. The priority algorithm is executed by selecting the task that has the highest priority. However, if more than one task has the same priority; it goes to second phase to execute the traditional Min-Min algorithm. Experiments are conducted by considering random tasks in order to compare the performance of the pro-posed algorithm with the Min-Min algorithm. The recorded experimental outcomes indicate that the proposed technique is given 10% better results as compared to the traditional Min-Min algorithm. %U https://www.sciencepubco.com/index.php/ijet/article/view/16300
