Abstract. Dynamic load balancing (DLB) is a method for balancing the server load, and as an offset, the network traffic, in distributed systems. The DLB method is based on Network Transferable Computer (NTC) and Mobile IP, and works using the concept of virtualization. A management system is provided to handle the entire process. It (1) analyzes packets for the server (2)calculates the fluctuation rate of the amount of packets toward the server (3)estimates the future amount of packets.(4)determines whether the server will virtually move or not and a new location of the server (5)takes care of post migration analysis. The evaluation of this method is underlined by simulations, which will show effective reduction of server load.
