Receiver Initiated Deadline Aware Load Balancing Strategy (RDLBS) for Cloud Environment

The emerging cloud computing technology is the attention of both commercial and academic spheres. Generally, the cost of the faster resource is more than the slower ones, therefore, there is a trade-off between deadline and cost. In this paper, the authors propose a receiver initiated deadline aware load balancing strategy (RDLBS) which tries to meet the deadline of the requests and optimizes the rate of revenue. RDLBS balances the load among the virtual machines (VMs) by migrating the request from the overloaded VMs to underloaded VMs. Turnaround time is also computed for the performance evaluation. The experiments are conducted by using CloudSim simulator and results are compared with existing state of art algorithms with similar objectives.
