Abstract

Today, cloud computing has the power to respond to the different users requests. In cloud computing, the problem of user requests scheduling or Task Scheduling (TS) is a very efficient technique that, if done optimally, increases system performance. Therefore, in this article, a Meta-Heuristic (MH) TS algorithm is proposed using the hybrid of Aquila Optimizer (AO), Harris-Hawks-Optimization (HHO) and LevyFligth named AO-HHO-LevyFligth. In AO-HHO-LevyFligth, the combination of HHO exploration phase with AO exploitation phase as well as LevyFligth is used to obtain the best timing. Comparison between AO-HHO-LevyFligth and HHO methods, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), AO and Firefly Algorithm (FA) according to criteria (throughput and makespan), shows the high efficiency of AO-HHO-LevyFligth in solving the problem is the TS.
