Cloud high latency limitation has necessitated the introduction of Fog computing paradigm that extends computing infrastructures in the cloud data centers to the edge network. Extended cloud resources provide processing, storage and network services to time sensitive request associated to the Internet of Things (IoT) services in network edge. The rapid increase in adoption of IoT devices, variations in user requirements, limited processing and storage capacity of fog resources and problem of fog resources over saturation has made provisioning and allotment of computing resources in fog environment a formidable task. Satisfying application and request deadline is the most substantial challenge compared to other dynamic variations in parameters of client requirements. To curtail these issues, the integrated fog-cloud computing environment and efficient resource selection method is highly required. This paper proposed an agent based dynamic resource allocation that employs the use of host agent to analyze the QoSrequirements of application and request and select a suitable execution layer. The host agent forwards the application request to a layer agent which is responsible for the allocation of best resource that satisfies the requirement of the application request. Host agent and layers agents maintains resource information tables for matching of task and computing resources. CloudSim toolkit functionalities were extended to simulate a realistic fog environment where the proposed method is evaluated. The experimental results proved that the proposed method performs better in terms of processing time, latency and percentage QoS delivery. HIGHLIGHTS The distance between the cloud infrastructure and the edge IoT devices makes the cloud not too competent for some IoT applications, especially the sensitive ones To minimize the latency in the cloud and ensure prompt response to user requests, Fog computing, which extends the cloud services to edge network was introduced The proliferation in adoption of IoT devices and fog resource limitations has made resource scheduling in fog computing a tedious one GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

The crowd-creation space is a manifestation of the development of innovation theory to a certain stage. With the creation of the crowd-creation space, the problem of optimizing the resource allocation of the crowd-creation space has become a research hotspot. The emergence of cloud computing provides a new idea for solving the problem of resource allocation. Common cloud computing resource allocation algorithms include genetic algorithms, simulated annealing algorithms, and ant colony algorithms. These algorithms have their obvious shortcomings, which are not conducive to solving the problem of optimal resource allocation for crowd-creation space computing. Based on this, this paper proposes an In the cloud computing environment, the algorithm for optimizing resource allocation for crowd-creation space computing adopts a combination of genetic algorithm and ant colony algorithm and optimizes it by citing some mechanisms of simulated annealing algorithm. The algorithm in this paper is an improved genetic ant colony algorithm (HGAACO). In this paper, the feasibility of the algorithm is verified through experiments. The experimental results show that with 20 tasks, the ant colony algorithm task allocation time is 93ms, the genetic ant colony algorithm time is 90ms, and the improved algorithm task allocation time proposed in this paper is 74ms, obviously superior. The algorithm proposed in this paper has a certain reference value for solving the creative space computing optimization resource allocation.
