Abstract. this work proposes an algorithm of sequential analysis of variants (SAV) to solve the distributional problem of allocation of virtual machines to physical servers in a data center. The set of tests and rules of the SAV algorithm is defined. The experimental results for problems of different dimensions are given. The comparison of the proposed algorithm with heuristic and genetic algorithms is accomplished. The time of finding solution required by the SAV algorithm depending on the dimension of the problem is evaluated. The recommendations for using the SAV algorithm are given. For tasks requiring high precision distribution it is better to use the SAV algorithm as it finds the optimal solution, whereas heuristic and evolutionary algorithms can quickly get an effective solution. The speed of the heuristic and evolutionary algorithms is not significantly dependent on the problem's size, but the quality of their solutions is worse than equivalent solution received with the SAV algorithm.
