An Online Load Balancing Algorithm for a Hierarchical Ring Topology

A hierarchical adaptive distributed algorithm for load balancing

Online Distribution and Load Balancing Optimization Using the Robin Hood and Johnson Hybrid Algorithm

Proper planning of assembly lines is one of the production managers’ concerns at the tactical level so that it would be possible to use the machine capacity, reduce operating costs and deliver customer orders on time. The lack of an efficient method in balancing assembly line can create threatening problems for manufacturing organizations. The use of assembly line balancing methods cannot balan...

Topology Aware Load Balancing for Grids

Load balancing functionalities are crucial for best Grid performance and utilization. Accordingly,this paper presents a new meta-scheduling method called TunSys. It is inspired from the natural phenomenon of heat propagation and thermal equilibrium. TunSys is based on a Grid polyhedron model with a spherical like structure used to ensure load balancing through a local neighborhood propagation s...

Periodic hierarchical load balancing for large supercomputers

Large parallel machines with hundreds of thousands of processors are being built. Ensuring good load balance is critical for scaling certain classes of parallel applications on even thousands of processors. Centralized load balancing algorithms suffer from scalability problems, especially on machines with relatively small amount of memory. Fully distributed load balancing algorithms, on the oth...

An Efficient Admission Control Algorithm for Load Balancing In Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 Networks

In hierarchical Mobile IPv6 networks, Mobility Anchor Point (MAP) may become a single point of bottleneck as it handles more and more mobile nodes (MNs). A number of schemes have been proposed to achieve load balancing among different MAPs. However, signaling reduction is still imperfect because these schemes also avoid the effect of the number of CN’s. Also only the balancing of MN is performe...
