IACOTS algorithm creates a new task scheduling model and path selection rules. The ACO can be applied to discrete heterogeneous CMP task scheduling problem. Meanwhile, it uses dynamic pheromone updating, two ant parallel search strategy, and the variations factor of genetic algorithm, to overcome the ACO to search too long and “premature” convergence phenomenon, improving local search speed and reducing the total program execution time. The results obtained through simulation experiments show that the algorithm has good performance of global optimization, and distributed parallel computer system. The performance is better than existing heterogeneous multiprocessor task scheduling algorithm. %U http://cea.ceaj.org/EN/abstract/article_33640.shtml
