Job Scheduling in Cloud Computing Using a Modified Harris Hawks Optimization and Simulated Annealing Algorithm.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, cloud computing technology has attracted extensive attention from both academia and industry. The popularity of cloud computing was originated from its ability to deliver global IT services such as core infrastructure, platforms, and applications to cloud customers over the web. Furthermore, it promises on-demand services with new forms of the pricing package. However, cloud job scheduling is still NP-complete and became more complicated due to some factors such as resource dynamicity and on-demand consumer application requirements. To fill this gap, this paper presents a modified Harris hawks optimization (HHO) algorithm based on the simulated annealing (SA) for scheduling jobs in the cloud environment. In the proposed HHOSA approach, SA is employed as a local search algorithm to improve the rate of convergence and quality of solution generated by the standard HHO algorithm. The performance of the HHOSA method is compared with that of state-of-the-art job scheduling algorithms, by having them all implemented on the CloudSim toolkit. Both standard and synthetic workloads are employed to analyze the performance of the proposed HHOSA algorithm. The obtained results demonstrate that HHOSA can achieve significant reductions in makespan of the job scheduling problem as compared to the standard HHO and other existing scheduling algorithms. Moreover, it converges faster when the search space becomes larger which makes it appropriate for large-scale scheduling problems.

Project description:Cloud computing has now evolved as an unavoidable technology in the fields of finance, education, internet business, and nearly all organisations. The cloud resources are practically accessible to cloud users over the internet to accomplish the desired task of the cloud users. The effectiveness and efficacy of cloud computing services depend on the tasks that the cloud users submit and the time taken to complete the task as well. By optimising resource allocation and utilisation, task scheduling is crucial to enhancing the effectiveness and performance of a cloud system. In this context, cloud computing offers a wide range of advantages, such as cost savings, security, flexibility, mobility, quality control, disaster recovery, automatic software upgrades, and sustainability. According to a recent research survey, more and more tech-savvy companies and industry executives are recognize and utilize the advantages of the Cloud computing. Hence, as the number of users of the Cloud increases, so did the need to regulate the resource allocation as well. However, the scheduling of jobs in the cloud necessitates a smart and fast algorithm that can discover the resources that are accessible and schedule the jobs that are requested by different users. Consequently, for better resource allocation and job scheduling, a fast, efficient, tolerable job scheduling algorithm is required. Efficient Hybrid Job Scheduling Optimization (EHJSO) utilises Cuckoo Search Optimization and Grey Wolf Job Optimization (GWO). Due to some cuckoo species' obligate brood parasitism (laying eggs in other species' nests), the Cuckoo search optimization approach was developed. Grey wolf optimization (GWO) is a population-oriented AI system inspired by grey wolf social structure and hunting strategies. Make span, computation time, fitness, iteration-based performance, and success rate were utilised to compare previous studies. Experiments show that the recommended method is superior.
