Abstract

There are various task scheduling models that are in use currently, but the one which we will be focusing on is the ANN (Artificial Neural Network) based model. This model was set up to estimate the task execution status for resource allotment among the candidates. An ANN-based model makes use of various scheduling algorithms to find the best results possible in terms of quality of service (QoS), total cost, service satisfaction, etc. Through our paper, we are simulating various task scheduling algorithms in a virtual environment and comparing their efficiency based on the results we obtain from these simulations. While our focus will be on an emerging meta-heuristic optimization algorithm called the Ant lion Algorithm, we are also running simulations for the Whale Optimization algorithm, and the Genetic Algorithm. For the prediction and allocation of cloud resources we use the Ant Lion Optimization Algorithm. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used for resource allocation. We discuss the results that depicts we get better results compared to the existing methods with proper allocation of resources and minimal cost.
