“…Another research direction is to consider other QoS such as fault tolerance and load balancing to cope with unpredictable failures and achieve global stable equilibrium. Furthermore, it would also be interesting to investigate other metaheuristics such as GA, 54 PSO, 55 or CS 56 as well as their hybridization with FPA algorithm to analyze and compare the behavior of the task scheduling process on the achieved global performances.…”

Summary Cloud computing services are used to fulfill user requests, often expressed in the form of tasks and their execution in such environments requires efficient scheduling strategies that take into account both algorithmic and architectural characteristics. Unfortunately, this problem is known to be NP‐hard in its general form. Despite the fact that several studies have been published in the literature, there are still interesting and relevant questions to be addressed. Indeed, most of the previous studies focus on a single objective and in the case where they deal with a set of objectives, they use a simple compromise function and do not consider how each of the parameters might influence the others. To this end, we propose an efficient task scheduling algorithm which is based on the pollination behavior of flowers and makes use of both Pareto optimality principle and TOPSIS technique to improve the quality of the obtained solutions. Both single and multiobjective optimization variants are investigated. In the latter case, three optimization criteria are considered, namely, minimizing the time makespan or schedule length, the execution cost, and maximizing the overall reliability of the task mapping. Different test‐bed scenarios and QoS metrics were considered and the obtained results corroborate the merits of the proposed algorithm.

“…In consideration with various existing metaheuristic methods, cuckoo search (CS) presented by Yang and Deb has appeared to be one of the effective soft computing techniques [ 33 – 37 ]. Recently, CS is widely accepted by maximum number of researchers in solving numerous optimization tasks [ 38 , 39 ].…”

The work proposes a computer-based diagnosis method (CBDM) to delineate and assess the corpus callosum (CC) segment from the 2-dimensional (2D) brain magnetic resonance images (MRI). The proposed CBDM consists of two parts: (1) preprocessing and (2) postprocessing sections. The preprocessing tools have a multithreshold technique with the chaotic cuckoo search (CCS) algorithm and a preferred threshold procedure. The postprocessing employs a delineation process for extracting the CC section. The proposed CBDM finally extracts the vital CC parameters, such as total brain area (TBA) and CC area (CCA) to classify the considered 2D MRI slices into the control and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) groups. This attempt considers the benchmark brain MRI database which includes ABIDE and MIDAS for the experimental investigation. The results obtained with ABIDE dataset are further confirmed against the fuzzy C -means driven level set (FCM + LS) and multiphase level set (MLS) technique and the proposed CBDM with Shannon entropy along with active contour (SE + AC) presented improved result in comparison to the existing methodologies. Further, the performance of CBDM is confirmed on MIDAS and clinical dataset. The experimental outcomes approve that the proposed CBDM extracts the CC section from the 2D MR brain images that have higher accuracy compared to alternative techniques.

Acceptability of mobile robots in various applications has led to an increase in mobile robots’ research areas. Path planning is one of the core areas which needs to be improvised at a higher level. Optimization is playing a more prominent role these days. The nature-inspired algorithm is contributing to a greater extent in achieving optimization. This article presents the modified cuckoo search algorithm using tournament selection function for robot path planning. Path length and Path time are the algorithm’s parameters to validate the effectiveness and acceptability of the output. The cuckoo search algorithm’s fundamental working principle is taken as the baseline, and the tournament selection function is adapted to calculate the optimum path for robots while navigating from its initial position to final position. The tournament selection function is replacing the concept of random selection done by the cuckoo search algorithm. The use of tournament selection overcomes local minima for robots while traversing in the configuration space and increases the probability of giving more optimum results. The conventional cuckoo search algorithm whose random selection mechanism may lead to premature convergence may fall into the local minima. The use of tournament selection function increases the probability of giving better results as it allows all the possible solution to take part in the tournament. The results are analysed and compared with other relevant work like cuckoo search algorithm and particle swarm optimization technique and presented in the article. The proposed method produced a better output in terms of path length and path time.
