Summary: Cloud computing is a large-scale distributed computing system that dynamically provides elastic services to users. Resource scheduling in Cloud computing, which aims to minimize makespan, is usually NP-Hard. This paper proposes multi-search-routes-based algorithms, integrating LPT and BFD as basic search routes with the OneStep neighborhood search algorithm, to optimize scheduling schemes for homogeneous and heterogeneous resources. Theoretical derivations and extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithms in minimizing makespan problems.

Summary: IoT devices can gather, store, and process more data, requiring scalability. Edge computing allows processing functions to be moved closer to where data is gathered. Job scheduling at the edges is important for ensuring near real-time response, but existing techniques do not consider job dependency, conflict, and heterogeneous edge infrastructure. This paper proposes an optimal job scheduling approach based on the cuckoo search algorithm, achieving high resource utilization even with conflicts and dependencies.

Summary: Support vector machines (SVMs) have been successfully used in classification and regression problems. Twin SVM (TWSVM) reduces the complexity of SVM, while least squares twin SVM (LSTSVM) is useful for solving multiclass classification problems with less computational cost and good generalization performance. A new regularization based method called multiclass regularized least squares twin support vector machine (MRLSTSVM) is proposed in this work to improve generalization performance in multiclass classification problems.
