Abstract:This paper proposes a deep reinforcement learning-based actor-critic method for efficient resource allocation in cloud computing. The proposed method uses an actor network to generate the allocation strategy and a critic network to evaluate the quality of the allocation. The actor and critic networks are trained using a deep reinforcement learning algorithm to optimize the allocation strategy. The proposed method is evaluated using a simulation-based experimental study, and the results show that it outperforms… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
