This paper describes an algorithm that allows Linux to perform multilevel load balancing in NUMA computers. The Linux scheduler implements a load balancing algorithm that uses str...
Energy expenditure has become a significant fraction of data center operating costs. Recently, “geographical load balancing” has been suggested to reduce energy cost by explo...

Recent work in high-performance computing has shifted attention to PC clusters.. For PC-clusters, member nodes are independent computers connected by generalpurpose networks. The ...
We investigate proactive dynamic load balancing on multicore systems, in which threads are continually migrated to reduce the impact of processor/thread mismatches to enhance the ...
