Shounak Chakraborty · International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology · 2013
As we know that in distributed systems several autonomous computers are interconnected to provide a single coherent view of a powerful system and these autonomous computers work independently in a team-like fashion such that the domain of tasks is shared between all of them.Now to take full advantage of this distributed scenario, we need good resource allocation schemes.Load distribution algorithm's work is to deliverately distributed and re-distributes the tasks (loads) among all the participating nodes so that the overall performance of the entire system is maximized.in this paper we study the details of the load distribution algorithms and their suitableness in various load scenerios.
