[en] In this paper, we would like to present our view on an energy efficiency mechanism based on a metaheuristic algorithm for a cloud broker in multi-cloud computing. The following study is only a design concept and therefore this paper does not intend offering some established results. The metaheuristic based algorithm we envisage using needs to deal with the multiple objectives defined by the cloud users and the Cloud Service Providers (CSPs). The goal of the mechanism mainly focuses on energy efficiency while searching for a balance point that satisfies the objectives of both the cloud users and the CSPs. In our proposed concept, the designed mechanism needs to include a component to collect the resources that underutilized by the cloud users (in public or private cloud environment) and offers them back to the cloud broker for re-rent.
