Optimizing Data Center Placement with

Cuckoo Search
●
In this presentation, we will explore the problem of
data center placement and how the Cuckoo Search
algorithm can be used to find an optimal solution.
Data centers are facilities that house computer
systems and store data. The location of these data
centers significantly impacts user experience, as it
affects the latency (delay) in accessing data. Our goal
is to find a placement for data centers that minimizes
the average latency for users.
The Problem: Data Center Placement
Data centers store and process vast amounts of data.
●

●
User experience is impacted by the latency (delay) in accessing
data.
●
We want to find data center placements that minimize the average
latency for users.
●
When users access data stored in a data center, there is a delay
(latency) involved. This latency depends on the physical distance
between the user and the data center. Ideally, we want to place
data centers in locations that minimize the average latency for all
users.
The Cuckoo Search Algorithm
●
Cuckoo Search is a nature-inspired optimization
algorithm.
Inspired by the behavior of cuckoo birds.
●

Cuckoos lay eggs in the nests of other birds (host birds).


●

●
If the host bird discovers the alien egg, it may eject it or
abandon the nest.
Code implementation
Levy distribution (step size calculation)
●

Levy flight (movement of cuckoos)


●

Average latency calculation


●

Cuckoo Search algorithm


●
Code implementation
levy_distribution: This function calculates the step size for a cuckoo's
●

movement based on the Levy flight concept.


●
levy_flight: This function simulates the Levy flight behavior for a cuckoo,
generating a new position based on the current position and the step size.
●
average_latency: This function calculates the average latency between user
locations and the nearest data center for a given data center placement.
●
cuckoo_search: This is the main function that implements the Cuckoo Search
algorithm. It generates an initial population of cuckoo placements, calculates
their fitness (average latency), iteratively updates the population through Levy
flights and egg-laying/replacement, and finally selects the placement with the
lowest average latency.
Results and Conclusion
●
The code finds data center placements that minimize average
latency.
●
Cuckoo Search is a viable approach for data center placement
optimization.
By running the code with sample user locations, we can obtain
the final optimized locations for all data centers and calculate
the final average latency. The Cuckoo Search algorithm
provides a viable approach to optimize data center placement
for real-world scenarios with a larger number of data centers
and user locations.
