This document describes using a meta-heuristic optimization algorithm called the Bat Algorithm (BA) to schedule workflows in cloud computing environments. The BA is applied to optimize a multi-objective function that minimizes workflow execution time and maximizes reliability while keeping costs within a user-specified budget. The BA is compared to a basic randomized evolutionary algorithm (BREA) that uses greedy approaches. Experimental results show the BA performs better by finding schedules that have lower execution times and higher reliability within the given budget constraints. The BA is well-suited for this problem because it can efficiently search large solution spaces and automatically focus on optimal regions like other metaheuristics.
