Bacterial Foraging Optimization Technique is used in optimization for grid computing as they get their inspirations from evolutionary idea of natural evolution. It has been broadly accepted as a global optimization algorithm of current interest for distributed optimization and control. This algorithm is inspired by the social foraging behavior of Escherichia coli. Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO) algorithm is a novel evolutionary computation algorithm. It is proposed based on the foraging behavior of the Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria living in the human intestine. The BFO algorithm is a biologically inspired computing technique. This paper presents a broad overview on the formalization of works contributed by Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm to the field of grid scheduling.
