Task allocation on cloud resources using analytic network process

Abstract

Cloud resources are increasing enormously with the growth in cloud technology. Allocating the resources is a cumbersome job as multiple criteria are involved. These criteria most often are dependent on each other. Analytic Network Process is well suited to solve such problems as it caters to dependent criteria that often give the feedback. The work proposes a task allocation model using Analytic Network Process for cloud resources. The model has been simulated and quite good results are obtained.
