Nowadays, Cloud Computing acts a major role in every field. These days, more large data centers are in service and many small cloud data centers are enlarging all over the universe. Cloud Computing is a catchword in the domain of HPC and offers on-demand services to the resources on the internet. The VMs (Virtual Machines) specified in the cloud data centres may have different specifications and instable resource usage, which causes imbalanced resource utilization within servers. Thus, it leads to performance degradation. Hence to achieve efficient selection of VM, these challenges must be addressed and solved by using meta-heuristics algorithms. In order to process the data, the VMs are placed on the PMs (Physical Machines). There will be multiple and dynamic request of input in the IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service) framework, hence the system’s responsibility is to create a VMs without knowing the types of tasks. Therefore, the fixed tasks scheduling is not right for this system. The most important research area that needs to be addressed is its performance in scheduling. The best and optimal solution is to find out in the cloud environment. Metaheuristics-based algorithms provide the near-optimal solution. In this paper, we proposed an Improved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm to reduce the makespan and improve the throughput. We have compared our results with adaptive three-threshold energy-aware (ATEA) algorithm and PSO. The investigational results display the proposed Improved PSO algorithm will schedule and balance the load in the dynamic cloud environment better than the other approaches.

Abstract


Nowadays, Cloud Computing acts a major role in every field. These days, more large data centers are in service and many small cloud data centers are enlarging all over the universe. Cloud Computing is a catchword in the domain of HPC and offers on-demand services to the resources on the internet. The VMs (Virtual Machines) specified in the cloud data centres may have different specifications and instable resource usage, which causes imbalanced resource utilization within servers. Thus, it leads to performance degradation. Hence to achieve efficient selection of VM, these challenges must be addressed and solved by using meta-heuristics algorithms. In order to process the data, the VMs are placed on the PMs (Physical Machines). There will be multiple and dynamic request of input in the IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service) framework, hence the system’s responsibility is to create a VMs without knowing the types of tasks. Therefore, the fixed tasks scheduling is not right for this system. The most important research area that needs to be addressed is its performance in scheduling. The best and optimal solution is to find out in the cloud environment. Metaheuristics-based algorithms provide the near-optimal solution. In this paper, we proposed an Improved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm to reduce the makespan and improve the throughput. We have compared our results with adaptive three-threshold energy-aware (ATEA) algorithm and PSO. The investigational results display the proposed Improved PSO algorithm will schedule and balance the load in the dynamic cloud environment better than the other approaches.
