An Optimized Algorithm for Task Scheduling Based on Activity Based Costing in Cloud Computing

In cloud computing, traditional way for task scheduling cannot measure the cost of cloud resources accurately by reason that each of the tasks on cloud systems is totally different between each other. There may be no relationship between the overhead application base and the way that different tasks cause overhead costs of resources in cloud systems. The traditional way for task scheduling cannot meet the cloud market well enough. This paper introduces an optimized algorithm for task scheduling based on ABC (activity based costing) in cloud computing and its implementation. Compared with the traditional methods of task scheduling, a new method with an optimized algorithm based on ABC algorithm was proposed in this paper.
