Bus-oriented load sharing for a network of sensor driven processors
Sameer A. Al‐Bataineh, Thomas G. Robertazzi · IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics · 1991
A load-sharing problem involving the optimal allocation of measurement data among n sensor-driven processors interconnected through a bus-type communication medium is considered for three distinct architectural configurations. It is found that a minimal-time solution can be achieved if the computations by the processors end simultaneously. Simple recursions for the determination of the optimal allocation of load are presented. It is shown that for this problem a small number of processors can be almost as effective as a larger number.>
