Abstract: In cloud computing, distributed resources are used on demand basis without having the physical infrastructure at the client end. Cloud has a large number of users and to deal with large number of task, so scheduling in cloud plays a vital role for task execution. Scheduling of various multitask jobs on clouds is considered as an NP-hard problem (Horng and Lin, 2017). In order to reduce the large scheduling search space, an iterative ordinal optimisation (IOO) method has already proposed. In this paper, a set of 30 candidate schedules denoted by set U are created. The set U is used in the exhaustive search of the best schedule. After analysing the set U, an ordered schedule vs. makespan graph is plotted. So in this work, set U is defined and created a base for applying IOO method to get optimal schedules. In this work, CloudSim version 3.0 has been used to test and analyse policies.

Keywords: cloud computing; iterative ordinal optimisation; makespan; CloudSim; schedules.
