Spider Monkey Optimization based Energy-Efficient Resource Allocation in Cloud Environment

Abstract

The origin of Cloud computing is from the principle of utility computing, which is characterized as a broadband service providing storage and computational resources. It provides a large variety of processing options and heterogeneous tools, allowing it to meet the needs of a wide range of applications at different levels. As a result, resource allocation and management are critical in cloud computing. In this work, the Spider Monkey Optimization (SMO) is used for attaining an optimized resource allocation. The key parameters considered to regulate the performance of SMO are its application time, migration time, and resource utilization. Energy consumption is another key factor in cloud computation which is also considered in this work. The Green Cloud Scheduling Model (GCSM) is followed in this work for the energy utilization of the resources. This is done by scheduling the heterogeneity tasks with the support of a scheduler unit which schedules and allocates the tasks which are deadline-constrained enclosed to nodes which are only energy-conscious. Assessing these methods is formulated using the cloud simulator programming process. The parameter used to determine the energy efficiency of this method is its energy consumption. The simulated outcome of the proposed approach proves to be effective in response time, makespan, energy consumption along with resource utility corresponding to the existing algorithms.
