AN ADAPTIVE ALGORITHM FOR DYNAMIC PRIORITY BASED VIRTUAL MACHINE SCHEDULING IN CLOUD

Cloud computing, a relatively new technology, has been gaining immense popularity over the last few years. The number of cloud users has been growing exponentially and apparently scheduling of virtual machines in the cloud becomes an important issue to analyze. This paper throws light on the various scheduling algorithms present for scheduling virtual machines and also proposes a new algorithm that combines the advantages of all the existing algorithms and overcomes their disadvantages.
