Multi-objective swarm-based model for deploying virtual machines on cloud physical servers.

The physical cloud servers consists of n number of machines for serving the requirements posted via Virtual Machines by the users. The allocation of requested Virtual Machines to appropriate Physical Servers is one among the challenging task exists in Cloud Computing. During the deployment phase several objectives needs to be considered which includes the total power consumption, the resource wastage, network propagation delay and so on. Allocating VM's to PM's with such fashion will lead the service providers financially. In this paper a swarm-based algorithm is modified for solving VM placement in terms of multi-objective perspective. Minimizing total power consumption and minimizing the resource wastage are the objectives considered in this paper. The results show the significance of the proposed model in terms of objective space and with the performance indicators such as ONGV and Spacing ( S p ). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
