Abstract

Cloud computing is the service that enables us to use computing resources such as processing entities, storage, and applications as on-demand over the web. It begins to influence many areas, e.g., government, finance, telecommunications, and education. Cloudlet scheduling is a major issue which is greatly influencing the performance of cloud computing environment. The user requests are given to datacenter broker and data center broker allotted user requests to suitable VM with the assistance of cloudlet allocation policy. So, cloudlet allocation policy must be sufficient to execute user request on VM as early as possible because several users wait to execute their request for accessing cloud services. The main aim is to use the resources effectively and get maximum profit. This paper demonstrates review of an existing cloudlet allocation policy that assists in the allocation of cloudlets on the suitable virtual machines (VMs). It utilizes all offered resources effectively and upgrades the QoS. Cloudlet allocation policy uses CloudSim Toolkit-3.0.3 for their implementation by only changing the desired classes.
