Structured peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks like Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) map data items to the network based on a consistent hashing function. Such mapping for data distribution has an inherent load balance problem. Thus, a load balancing mechanism is an indispensable part of a structured P2P overlay network for high performance. The rapid development of P2P systems has posed challeng...

As IPv6 deployment grows, it is important to develop new measurement techniques that allow us to study the IPv6 Internet. We implement an IPv6 version of the Multipath Detection Algorithm and use it from 12 geographically-distributed vantage points on two different platforms to characterize IPv6 routers that perform load balancing. Overall, we find that 74% of IPv6 routes traverse at least one ...

Conventional load balancing schemes are efficient at increasing the utilization of CPU, memory, and disk I/O resources in a Distributed environment. Most of the existing load-balancing schemes ignore network proximity and heterogeneity of nodes. Load balancing becomes more challenging as load variation is very large and the load on each server may change dramatically over time, by the time when...

Load balancing in distributed computer systems is the process of redistributing the work load among processors in the system to improve system performance. Most of previous research in using fuzzy logic for the purpose of load balancing has only concentrated in utilizing fuzzy logic concepts in describing processors load and tasks execution length. The responsibility of the fuzzy-based load bal...

Dynamic load balancing is an important factor affecting the parallel computing performance in a multiprocessor system. On the basis of an introduction to the principle of dynamic load balancing algorithm, we will find the rated efficiency, throughput, speedup, performance of the multiprocessor systems , in case of load balancing we finds through analysis that the basic reason for overhead occur...

The Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) compliant load balancing mechanism has caught the attention of many researchers in recent years. Load balancing is an issue, which has to be concerned in CORBA architecture. In this paper, we provide an overview of CORBA-based load balancing mechanism. We discuss its requirements, policies, strategies, as well as the pros and cons. We addres...

The implementation of a load balancing policy on a continuous basis in a delay-limited distributed computing environment may not only drain the computational resources of each computational element (CE), but can also lead to an unnecessary exchange of loads between the CEs. This degrades the system performance, measured by the overall completion time of the total tasks in the system. Thus, for ...

This paper introduces a new load balancing algorithms, called LDMA (Load balancing using Decentralized decision-making Mobile Agents) and WLDMA (WAN Load balancing using Decentralized decision making Mobile Agents) which distributes load among local and geographically distributed web servers connected in a mesh topology, by a communications network. The performance of LDMA is compared with MALD...

This paper presents a simple load balancing algorithm and its probabilistic analysis. Unlike most of the previous load balancing algorithms, this algorithm maintains locality. We show that the cost of this load balancing algorithm is small for practical situations and discuss some interesting applications for data remapping. Index Terms Data locality, irregularity, load balancing, mapping, prob...
