Table 3 Pursuit algorithm—calculated threshold values based on VM placement.

From: Efficient energy consumption in hybrid cloud environment using adaptive backtracking virtual machine consolidation

Algorithm 2: Pursuit algorithm—VM threshold selection

Input: N—Number of resource in Physical machine, m—set VMs, Classified VMs

Output: VM Threshold

Step 1: Select the upper and lower bound threshold values from Algorithm 1

Step 2: For i = 1 to N and j = 1 to M do

Step 3: Th → Machinepi=1NHostiVMi

Step 4: AvgTh = i=1NThiVMi+ j=1mMachineviVMi

Step 5: UpperTh = AvgTh + Th + MachineP

Step 6: LowerTh = AvgTh + Th + MachineV

Step 7: Return Th values to Host

Step 8: Repeat the step and Select the threshold
