Amended hybrid multi-verse optimizer with genetic algorithm for solving task scheduling problem in cloud computing

The central cloud facilities based on virtual machines offer many benefits to reduce the scheduling costs and improve service availability and accessibility. The approach of cloud computing is practical due to the combination of security features and online services. In the tasks transfer, the source and target domains have differing feature spaces. This challenge becomes more complicated in network traffic, which leads to data transfer delay, and some critical tasks could not deliver at the right time. This paper proposes an efficient optimization method for task scheduling based on a hybrid multi-verse optimizer with a genetic algorithm called MVO-GA. The proposed MVO-GA is proposed to enhance the performance of tasks transfer via the cloud network based on cloud resources' workload. It is necessary to provide adequate transfer decisions to reschedule the transfer tasks based on the gathered tasks' efficiency weight in the cloud. The proposed method (MVO-GA) works on multiple properties of cloud resources: speed, capacity, task size, number of tasks, number of virtual machines, and throughput. The proposed method successfully optimizes the task scheduling of a large number of tasks (i.e., 1000-2000). The proposed MVO-GA got promising results in optimizing the large cloud tasks' transfer time, which reflects its effectiveness. The proposed method is evaluated based on using the simulation environment of the cloud using MATLAB distrusted system.
