Conference Title: 2018 13th International Conference on Computer Engineering and Systems (ICCES) Conference Start Date: 2018, Dec. 18 Conference End Date: 2018, Dec. 19 Conference Location: Cairo, Egypt The service flow management is one from the most challenges especially in heterogeneous environments which has several and various processors for computing. Service flow is used to explain services configuration process when service’s formation according to the precedence relations of configuration should be considered. Its management should take into account multi-objective constraints. Security that is a basically constraint, concerns with how the flow management overcomes the threats against confidentiality, integrity, etc. The total execution time should not be completed after the specified time that leading to consider the deadline constraint into account. Also the cost minimization that is a critical issue shouldn’t be ignored. Obtaining the optimal management in a sensible time is so hard because there are many candidate with different processing power and price, constraints from the user and the precedence of heterogeneous services. In this paper, the service flow management problem is solved by a genetic algorithm that considers the security, deadline and cost constraints. It focuses on the improvement of the security level, optimizes the execution time objective to meet the deadline constraint and minimizes the execution cost according to the budget in heterogeneous computing. The results from the applied experiments proves that the proposed algorithm can be able to minimize total cost, save the level security and consolidate the execution time with the deadline constraint. It reach to a near-optimal solution in reasonable time. It outperforms the compared algorithms in the metric of security level, SLR, cost, risk ratio, speed up and completion time measurements.
