The study investigates various load balancing strategies to improve the performance of
distributed computer systems. A static task allocation and a number of dynamic load …

One of the major issues concerning the efficiency and effectiveness of dynamic load
balancing algorithms is their scalability. As the size of the distributed computer system …

In this paper, dynamic load balancing algorithms are studied using a queueing theoretic
model. For each algorithm, a different load index has been used to estimate the host loads …

Load balancing plays a central role in processor utilizations in distributed systems. Several
strategies have been proposed in the literature to achieve load balancing. Usually, these …

In a large distributed computing environment, like Grid, tasks can be submitted at any host
and the random arrival of tasks in such an environment can cause some hosts to be heavily …

Distributed systems are gradually being accepted as the dominant computing paradigm of
the future. However, due to the diversity and multiplicity of resources, and the need for …

The design and implementation of a prototype load balancer on a loosely-coupled
distributed system are discussed, and the results of a large number of measurement …

Load balancing is a task scheduling scheme for distributed computing systems, that transfer
OT idle PTO-cessors to balance workload so that average response time can be reduced …

An important consideration in improving the performance of a distributed computer system is
the balancing of the load between the host computers. Load balancing may be either static …

Objectives: In this paper, the response time of the tasks is minimized by migrating the tasks
from the overloaded computers to the under load computers using a load balancing …
