PGWO-AVS-RDA: An intelligent optimization and clustering based load balancing model in cloud

Load balancing and task scheduling in cloud have gained a significant attention by many researchers, due to the increased demand of computing resources and services. For this purpose, there are various load balancing methodologies are developed in the existing works, which are mainly focusing on allocating the tasks to Virtual Machines (VMs) based on their priority, order of tasks, and execution time. Still, it facing the major difficulties in finding the best tasks for allocation, because the sequence of patterns are normally used to categorize the relevant tasks with respect to the load. Thus, this research work intends to develop an intelligent group of mechanisms for efficiently allocating the tasks to the VMs by finding the best tasks with respect to the scheduling parameters. Initially, the user tasks are given to the load balancer unit, where the Probabilistic Gray Wolf Optimization (PGWO) technique is used to find the best fitness value for selecting the tasks. Then, the Adaptive Vector Searching (AVS) methodology is utilized to cluster the group of tasks for efficiently allocating the tasks with improved Quality of Service (QoS). Finally, the Recursive Data Acquisition (RDA) based scheduler unit can allocate the clustered tasks to the appropriate VMs in the cloud system by analyzing the properties of storage capacity, balancing load of VM, CPU usage, memory consumption, and execution time of tasks. During evaluation, the performance of the proposed load balancing model is validated by using various measures. Then, the obtained results are compared with some state-of-the-art models for proving the betterment of the proposed scheme.
