Abstract With the rapid development of in modern technologies has led to a novel generation of cyberspace equipment and secure analysis methods such as cyber‐physical system (CPS). The CPS system refers to an intelligent dependable system of embedded smart devices used to monitor and control the cyberspace conditions in a fog computing environment. The fog computing environment connects resources even human beings together to enhance the quality of life through performing of CPS applications using computation resources at the network edge. The optimization of task scheduling for the CSP applications as a challenging issue has been considered as the NP‐hard problem in fog computing environment which is not trivial. On the one hand, reasonable tasks scheduling can increase resource utilization, which can avoid less idle resource. This paper presents a task scheduling algorithm based on moth‐flame optimization algorithm to assign an optimal set of tasks to fog nodes to meet the satisfaction of quality of service requirements of CPS applications in such a way that the total execution time of tasks is minimized. The minimization of task execution and transfer time in the proposed algorithm are considered as objective functions. The experimental testing of the proposed solution is carried out in iFogSim toolkit. As a result of the simulation based on proposed algorithm found, the optimal solution for the scheduling of tasks and equal distribution of tasks to fog nodes has been provided, and less total execution time consumption has been achieved compared with other algorithms.
