Cluster heterogeneity increases the difficulty of balancing the load across the system nodes.
Although the relationship between heterogeneity and load balancing is difficult to describe …

With ever increasing network traffic, dynamic load balancing can achieve improved
performance in a typical distributed system to cope with the fluctuating workload. The hybrid …

In this paper two new methods for load balancing in distributed systems are proposed. Both
methods are based on hierarchical structure. Hierarchical structure provides better load …

The problem of computing a large set of different tasks on a set of heterogeneous resources
connected by a network is very common nowadays in very different environments and load …

The workload on a cluster system can be highly variable, increasing the difficulty of
balancing the load across its nodes. And the general rule is that high variability leads to …

We present a performance study on three different load balancing algorithms. The first
algorithm employs only task assignment, whereas the other two allow both task assignment …

A fundamental issue affecting the performance of a parallel application running on a
distributed system is the distribution of the workload over the various machines in the …

Efficient resource usage is a key to achieving better performance in cluster systems.
Previously, most research in this area has focused on balancing the load if each node to use …

Load Balancers (LBs) play a critical role in managing the performance and resource
utilization of distributed systems. However, developing efficient LBs for large, distributed …
