In completely symmetric systems that have homogeneous nodes (hosts, computers, or processors) with identical arrival processes, an optimal static load balancing scheme does not in...
1 Since I/O-intensive tasks running on a heterogeneous cluster need a highly effective usage of global I/O resources, previous CPUor memory-centric load balancing schemes suffer ...

While previous CPU- or memory-centric load balancing schemes are capable of achieving the effective usage of global CPU and memory resources in a cluster system, the cluster exhib...

This paper studies cluster load balancing policies and system support for fine-grain network services. Load balancing on a cluster of machines has been studied extensively in the...
While many interesting dynamic load balancing schemes have been proposed for efficient use of limited bandwidth and to increase the capacity of congested or hot spots (or cells) in...
