Computer processing power has evolved considerably in recent years. However, there are problems that still require many machines to perform a large amount of processing in a parallel and distributed way. In this context, the task scheduling in a distributed system present many algorithms. In this chapter, the authors present a scheduler based on genetic algorithms in order to distribute tasks more efficiently in a computational grid; it has been implemented in GRIDSIM, a computational grid simulator with the features and attributes of a real grid.
