LBPSGORA: Create Load Balancing with Particle Swarm Genetic Optimization Algorithm to Improve Resource Allocation and Energy Consumption in Clouds Networks

Abstract

Due to the purpose of this study that reducing power consumption in the cloud network is based on load balancing, the fitness function measures the load balance between cloud network and servers (the hosts). This technique is appropriate for handling the resource optimization challenges, due to the ability to convert the load balancing problem into an optimization problem (reducing imbalance cost). In this research, combining the results of the particle swarm genetic optimization (PSGO) algorithm and using a combination of advantages of these two algorithms lead to the improvement of the results and introducing a suitable solution for load balancing operation, because in the proposed approach (LBPSGORA), instead of randomly assigning the initial population in the genetic algorithm, the best result is procured by putting the initial population. The LBPSGORA method is compared with PSO, GA, and hybrid GA-PSO. The execution cost, load balancing, and makespan have been evaluated and our method has performed better than similar methods.
