In Cloud computing environment QoS i.e. Quality-of-Service and cost is the key element that to be take care of. As, today in the era of big data, the data must be handled properly while satisfying the request. In such case, while handling request of large data or for scientific applications request, flow of information must be sustained. In this paper, a brief introduction of workflow scheduling is given and also a detailed survey of various scheduling algorithms is performed using various parameter.

Cloud computing is the latest distributed technology providing a rich environment of dynamically shared resources through virtualization, which can fulfill the requirements of users by allocating resources to programs. Any program in a cloud environment is delivered by workflows which are a series of interlinked tasks to accomplish a goal. One of the most important tasks in cloud computing is correct mapping of tasks onto resources. It is essential to schedule processes in distributed systems such as cloud, since it leaves a tremendous impact on the system performance. This is done by scheduling algorithms. Therefore, it is crucial to present and adopt an efficient algorithm in the cloud environment. This article attempted to examine the parameters effective in the efficiency of scheduling algorithms including deadline, cost constraint, balanced loading, power consumption and fault tolerance. Additionally, the performances of several algorithms were briefly discussed.
