Abstract

Cloud computing is a popular computing paradigm that performs processing of huge volumes of data using highly available geographically distributed resources that can be accessed by users on the basis of Pay As per Use policy. In the modern computing environment where the amount of data to be processed is increasing day by day, the costs involved in the transmission and execution of such amount of data is mounting significantly. So there is a requirement of appropriate scheduling of tasks which will help to manage the escalating costs of data intensive applications. This paper analyzes various evolutionary and swarm based task scheduling algorithms that address the above mentioned problem.
