A Multi-objective Optimal Task Scheduling in Cloud Environment Using Cuckoo Particle Swarm Optimization

Abstract

In cloud computing, varied demands are placed on the constantly changing resources. The task scheduling place very vital role in cloud computing environments, this scheduling process needs to schedule the tasks to virtual machine while reducing the makespan and cost. The task scheduling problem comes under NP hard category. Efficient scheduling method makes cloud computing services better and faster. In general, optimization algorithms are used to solve the scheduling issues in cloud. So, in this paper we combined two optimization algorithms namely called as Cuckoo Search (CS) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO).The new proposed hybrid algorithm is called as, CS and particle swarm optimization (CPSO). Our main purpose of the proposed paper is to reduce the makespan, cost and deadline violation rate. The performance of the proposed CPSO algorithm is evaluated using cloudsim toolkit. From the simulation results our proposed works minimize the makespan, cost, deadline violation rate, when compared to PBACO, ACO, MIN–MIN, and FCFS.
