abstract= "Load balancing in MIMD message-passing parallel computers is
essential to make efficient use of the system resources and
reduce the program runtime. For parallel computers that also
provide topological \^{}configurability, it is necessary for
the load balancing strategy to not only find an optimum
distribution of tasks to processors, but also to determine
the best-suited interconnection pattern for the processors.
In this paper, we present an off-line tool, LiBRA, that will
assist in automating the process of load balancing. The user
specifies his problem in terms of a computation graph and
the machine characteristics. LiBRA uses simulated annealing
with an automatic annealing schedule to generate the optimal
configuration."
