A Novel Genetic Algorithm for Workflow Scheduling in Cloud Computing Environment

B. Kanagalakshmi

Abstract


The swarm intelligence is a relatively new approach for problem solving that takes inspiration from the social behaviours of insects and of other animals. In particular, ants have inspired a number of methods and techniques among which the most studied and the most successful is the general purpose optimization technique known as ant colony optimization. The technique for finding the shortest path was applied in cloud computing. The genetic algorithm and ant colony approach [4] [5] [6] and [1] towards cloud computing gives better performance.
