Reliability aware Resource Scheduling based on Fuzzy Cuckoo Search (FCS) Technique for IaaS Cloud

Abstract Resource scheduling assigns the precise and accurate tasks to CPU, network, and storage. The aim behind this is the optimum usage of resources. However, well-organized scheduling is needed for both cloud providers and cloud users. Several resource scheduling algorithms have been discussed in the literature, but there are little emphases to reliability aware resource scheduling. In this research article, an innovative technique is proposed that is known as the Fuzzy Cuckoo Search (FCS) technique based on the fuzzy theory and cuckoo search algorithm to solve real-time optimization problematic issues. The FCS technique is used to address the reliability aware resource scheduling problems in IaaS Cloud. An experiment has been carried out on the CloudSim simulator and results of FCS techniques are compared with the Genetic Algorithm (GA), Honey Bee (HB) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) scheduling algorithms. Finally, computational results demonstrate that the FCS technique is produced 39.21% better optimal solutions than the best solutions obtained by the comparison algorithms in terms of failure rate. It specifies that the FCS technique is more appropriate for reliability aware resource scheduling for IaaS Cloud.
