Multiobjective Reliable Cloud Storage with Its Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

Abstract

Information abounds in all fields of the real life, which is often recorded as digital data in computer systems and treated as a kind of increasingly important resource. Its increasing volume growth causes great difficulties in both storage and analysis. The massive data storage in cloud environments has significant impacts on the quality of service (QoS) of the systems, which is becoming an increasingly challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a multiobjective optimization model for the reliable data storage in clouds through considering both cost and reliability of the storage service simultaneously. In the proposed model, the total cost is analyzed to be composed of storage space occupation cost, data migration cost, and communication cost. According to the analysis of the storage process, the transmission reliability, equipment stability, and software reliability are taken into account in the storage reliability evaluation. To solve the proposed multiobjective model, a Constrained Multiobjective Particle Swarm Optimization (CMPSO) algorithm is designed. At last, experiments are designed to validate the proposed model and its solution PSO algorithm. In the experiments, the proposed model is tested in cooperation with 3 storage strategies. Experimental results show that the proposed model is positive and effective. The experimental results also demonstrate that the proposed model can perform much better in alliance with proper file splitting methods.

An Adaptive Data Placement Architecture in Multicloud Environments

“…It is still a single objective optimization problem. In [12], Liu et al use multiobjective particle swarm optimization algorithm to minimize storage space cost, data migration cost, and communication cost as well as enhancing the storage reliability. However, they cannot determine how to choose an optimal solution in the Pareto front.…”

“…For the above problem, Q-learning is widely used tabular RL algorithm [19,31] which is an off-policy TD control. It is defined by [31] Q(S, A) ⟵ Q(S, A) + α R + λmax a Q S ′ , a − Q(S, A) , (12) where R � R(t) that is defined in (10) and α is the learning rate.…”

“…Artificial neural network equipment degradation model is proposed in [22,23] to predict the remaining life of equipment. A particle swarm optimization model is employed in [24][25][26] to solve the reliability optimization problem with uncertainties.

“…Problem-independent technique is used to solve various complex problems, such as genetic algorithm [22], simulated annealing algorithm [23], particle swarm optimization [24], tabu search algorithm [25], and neural net algorithm [26]. The research of combining metaheuristics with importance measure is also developed to solve CAP.…”
