Multi-objective load balancing in distributed computing environment
Avadh Kishor, Rajdeep Niyogi · 2020
In this paper, we consider the load balancing problem as a bi-objective problem which includes minimization of jobs' response time and utilization imbalance among servers. We consider both the objectives in an integrated manner and formulated as an optimization model. We cast into the game-theoretic setting. To derive the solution of the game, we propose a co-evolutionary computing framework, called CO-evolutionary framework based on Differential Evolution (CODE). Simulation results show that the CODE not only minimizes the jobs' response time but also significantly reduces the utilization imbalance among servers.
