Abstract: Cloud computing has gained significant popularity as a platform for processing large-scale data analytics, offering benefits such as high availability, robustness, and cost-effectiveness. However, job scheduling in cloud systems presents a major challenge, as it directly impacts execution time and operational costs. To address these issues, this paper presents a novel multi-adaptive convergent particle swarm optimisation (MAC-PSO) algorithm designed to decrease the failure rate, minimise makespan values, and enhance resource utilisation. The round Robin scheduling method aids in task execution by determining the appropriate time-space allocation. The proposed algorithm's performance is compared to that of the TLBO algorithm, demonstrating that MAC-PSO outperforms both TLBO and the original PSO. Moreover, a comprehensive analysis is proposed to evaluate the performance metrics within the MAC-PSO algorithm. Notably, MAC-PSO effectively increases the ratio of solutions that dominate previous algorithmic approaches and identifies a greater number of solutions that cater to user preferences.
