Exploiting resources belonging to multiple cloud providers in an efficient way is still an open issue for distributed computing. Scheduling algorithms based on heuristic, probabilistic, queue theory, or complex soft computing methods are suitable to tackle the heterogeneity and dynamism present in c...
