Abstract:The authors propose two dynamic load balancing methods which give consideration to network delays in a large‐scale, wide‐area distributed system. In general in load balancing, the number of candidate computers for transfers increases as the number of computers being used increases, and so efforts are made to improve response time. There is, however, a concern that performance will drop due to delay overhead when candidate destinations for transfers include computers with large delays. Therefore, in this resear… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
