ABSTRACT:In recent years swarm intelligence (SI) becomes important for many researchers. Artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) is one kind of swarm based algorithm. It follows the foraging behaviour of honey bees. In cloud computing environment, the load balancing is an important factor. The tasks are executed on Virtual Machines (VMs) and those VMs are run in parallel manner, so that the load across all VMs has to be balanced well. Because in cloud environment user pay for the service ,reduction in the execution time of task and the cost of using VM instances (CPU, Memory, Bandwidth etc) is most important.. The aim of proposed algorithm is to maximize the throughput. In this paper, we have discussed different honey bee inspired algorithms. Here the proposed algorithm uses the concept of pareto dominance"s weighted sum approach for selecting optimal VM and also work with preemptive task scheduling.
