Efficient task scheduling in distributed and cloud-fog computing environments plays a pivotal role in optimizing system performance, reliability, and operational costs. This study presents a comprehensive task scheduling model that integrates cost-aware and reliability-driven strategies to enhance resource utilization while minimizing system downtime and overall execution expense. By incorporating dynamic workload distribution, fuzzy-logic-based decision-making, and hybrid metaheuristic approaches, the proposed model addresses uncertainties and heterogeneity in modern computing systems. Extensive simulations and performance analyses demonstrate that the model achieves significant improvements in system reliability and cost reduction compared to conventional scheduling techniques. The findings offer a practical framework for designing adaptive and efficient scheduling mechanisms in cloud, fog, and IoT-enabled environments.
