Item An objective study on improvement of task scheduling mechanism using computational intelligence in cloud computing(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016) George, N.; Chandrasekaran, K.; Binu, A.Cloud Computing facilitates delivery of various types of computational services through the internet. These services can be availed according to the user demand. The resource scarcity problems within the Service Providers are met using Virtualization technique, which allows scalability of resources and thereby helps to meet the client requirements. Allocation of resources to client tasks is an issue that is being addressed for a long time. Due to the increased complexity in the area, there has not yet been a perfect scheduling mechanism. Practices have been done profusely in order to find solutions for scheduling that nears optimality. A single scheduling mechanism may not always give the expected outcome. The task scheduling mechanisms are designed in a manner as to optimize some metrics related to the Cloud. This paper overviews various literature associated with task scheduling and resource scheduling in Cloud Computing. An examination of the techniques is done and a proposal is made, which will allow to further improve the scheduling mechanism. © 2015 IEEE.Item Optimization-Aware scheduling in cloud computing(Association for Computing Machinery acmhelp@acm.org, 2016) Binu, A.; George, N.; Chandrasekaran, K.Cloud computing allows delivery of computational resources via internet. Some of the computational resources include signals, codes and physical resources. Cloud users require computational resources for execution of their tasks. The computational elements, when thoroughly assigned to the cloud users according to requirement facilitate an efficient scheduling mechanism. The efficiency is dependent on the parameters chosen to promote the assignment of task to resources. Here, computational cost is chosen as the optimization factor, and the solution with the least cost is selected as the best assignment. A Cuckoo Search inspired technique is used, and task assignment to resources is done by validating the solution with the least value of cost. © 2016 ACM.
