PhD Thesis Defense at the College of Computer Science and Mathematics \u2013 Department of Computer Science: Ali Mohammed Ahmed Sheet<\/p>\n
On October 14, 2026, a PhD thesis titled “Optimization of Scheduling Algorithms for Large-Scale Distributed Systems” by Ali Mohammed Ahmed Sheet was defended at the College of Computer Science and Mathematics, University of Mosul. The thesis was supervised by Prof. Dr. Manar Younis Kashmoula.<\/p>\n
The thesis addresses the challenge of task scheduling in large-scale, heterogeneous distributed systems, evaluating the performance of traditional heuristic algorithms alongside a hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm, WOA-BA.<\/p>\n
The study involved the development of a multi-layered distributed simulation environment. Scheduling algorithms were assessed based on several metrics, including throughput, energy consumption, resource utilization, waiting time, and adherence to Quality of Service (QoS) standards.<\/p>\n
The research aimed to develop a realistic simulation framework, evaluate and compare both traditional and newly developed scheduling algorithms, and provide evidence-based guidelines for selecting the most appropriate algorithm according to specific operational conditions.<\/p>\n
This thesis contributes to the following Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):<\/p>\n
1: Affordable and Clean Energy \u2013 as the research focuses on improving energy consumption efficiency within computing systems.<\/p>\n
2: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure \u2013 as the study relates to the development and optimization of resource scheduling within large-scale distributed computing infrastructures. 3: Climate Action\u2014as the thesis links the improvement of energy efficiency to the reduction of energy consumption, emissions, and environmental impact.<\/p>\n
The examination committee consisted of:<\/p>\n
Prof. Laheeb Mohammed Ibrahim (Chair)<\/p>\n
Prof. Salah Abdul-Ghani Jaro (Member)<\/p>\n
