In most distributed systems, the work generated at a node is processed there; little sharing of
computational resources is provided. In such systems it is possible for some nodes to be …

The performance of loadsharing algorithms for heterogeneous distributed systems is
investigated by simulation. The systems considered are networks of workstations (nodes) …

The paper presents two algorithms for dynamic load balancing in a distributed computer
system. The algorithms distribute tasks to the entire system for improving the performance of …

This paper presents an implementation and performance evaluation of load balancing in a
locally distributed system. The decentralized algorithm proposed here uses both process …

Most distributed systems are characterized by distribution of both physical and logical
features. The architecture of a distributed system is usually modular. Most distributed …

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 distributed systems, load balancing can improve efficiency by migrating jobs from heavily
loaded to lightly loaded sites. In this paper we present a method for optimal load allocation …

Load balancing is the process of redistributing the work load among nodes of the distributed
system to improve both resource utilization and job response time while also avoiding a …

This paper discusses a load balancing technique for distributed processing systems in
which the load may vary over a wide range and at a high rate. Each processor performs a …

In this paper, the problem of distributing load of a particular node over m identical nodes of a
distributed computing system for minimizing turnaround time is studied first. Then an efficient …
