Machine Learning Approach to Task Scheduling in Cloud Computing
Cloud computing provides on demand service on internet using network of remote servers. The pivotal role for any cloud environment would be to schedule tasks and the virtual machine scheduling have key role in maintaining Quality of Service (QOS) and Service Level Agreement (SLA). Task scheduling is the process of scheduling task (user requests) to certain resources and it is an NP-complete problem. The primary objectives of scheduling algorithms are to minimize makespan and improve resource utilization. In this research work an attempt is made to implement Artificial Neural Network (ANN), which is a methodology in machine learning technique and it is applied to implement task scheduling. It is observed that neural network trained with genetic algorithm will outperforms default genetic algorithm by an average efficiency of 25.56%.
