Cloud computing is a mainstay of modern technology, offering cost-effective and scalable solutions to a variety of different problems. The massive shift of organization resource needs from local systems to cloud-based systems has greatly increased the costs incurred by cloud providers in expanding, maintaining, and supplying server, storage, network, and processing hardware. Due to the large scale at which cloud providers operate, even small performance degradation issues can cause energy or resource usage costs to rise dramatically. One way in which cloud providers may improve cost reduction is by reducing energy consumption. The use of intelligent task-scheduling algorithms to allocate user-deployed jobs to servers can reduce the amount of energy consumed. Conventional task scheduling algorithms involve both heuristic and metaheuristic methods. Recently, the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI …
