A distributed system consists of several autonomous nodes. In a distributed system some of the nodes may be overloaded due to a large number of job arrivals while other nodes may remain idle without any processing. The performance of a distributed system depends crucially on dividing up work effectively among the computing nodes. So a way is needed to share load across all the computing nodes. In...
Grid computing is the combination of computer resources from multiple administrative domains for a common goal. Grid computing (or the use of a computational grid) is applying the resources of many computers in a network to a single problem at the same time — usually to solve a scientific or technical problem that requires a great number of computer processing cycles or access to large amounts of...
In this research, four static load balancing algorithms: round robin, randomized, central manager, and threshold, are simulated and they performances are compared. The simulation is performed using discrete event simulator. Load indices used for central manager and threshold algorithm are CPU, memory, and hard disk I/O. The simulation of the four algorithms is done against three types of programs...
