Optimized task scheduling algorithm for cloud computing

Abstract

Cloud computing is an extraordinary advancement which has changed the work culture of organizations. In cloud computing, a substantial number of assignments can be executed simultaneously using the resources of cloud yielding better results and in lesser time. This simultaneous and rapid execution of assignments is performed with the assistance of scheduling which is the demonstration of allocating tasks on resources in such a manner that same performance is achieved in least time with lesser utilization of resources. Nowadays various task scheduling algorithms are accessible. In this paper, a task scheduling algorithm is proposed that points reducing the turnaround time and waiting time of the tasks in cloud infrastructure. The algorithm is simulated using Cloudsim simulator, and experiments are carried out to demonstrate the results.
