Abstract
Scheduling an application in data grid is sign significantly complex and very challenging because of its heterogeneous in nature of the grid system. Thus, Divisible Load Theory (DLT) is a powerful model for modeling data intensive grid problem where both communication and computation load is partitionable. Previously, Task Data Present (TDP) model was proposed based on DLT model. This paper presents an Adoptive TDP (A TDP) model to reduce the makespan. New, equations for calculating the load allocation are derived. Experimental results showed that the proposed model can balance the load efficiently.
