Generally, the cloud environment aims in providing the resource that depends upon the user\u2019s necessity. The major problem caused by cloud computing is task scheduling. Nevertheless, the previous scheduling methods concentrate only on the resource needs, memory, implementation time and cost. In this paper, we introduced an optimal task-scheduling algorithm of the local pollination-based moth search algorithm (LPMSA), which is the hybridization of moth search algorithm (MSA) and flower pollination algorithm (FPA). The proposed LPMSA chooses an optimal solution for proper task scheduling in the cloud. Moreover, the exploitation capacity of MSA is improved by using the local search of the FPA algorithm. In this work, we use 2-fold simulation processes that are implemented under the platform of JAVA. The proposed LPMSA for task-scheduling performance is evaluated using low and high heterogeneous machines with uniform and non-uniform parameters. The experimental analysis demonstrates that the proposed LPMSA approach is well suitable for cloud task scheduling thereby reducing the makespan and energy consumption during proper task scheduling.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/comjnl\/bxaa053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,12]],"date-time":"2020-05-12T19:08:49Z","timestamp":1589310529000},"page":"382-395","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Local Pollination-Based Moth Search Algorithm for Task-Scheduling Heterogeneous Cloud Environment"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"65","author":[{"given":"M","family":"Gokuldhev","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Amrita College of Engineering and Technology, Nagercoil, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G","family":"Singaravel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology, K.S.R.
