Strategies for workload distribution

Authors: Phillips, Iain, Capon, Peter C.

Abstract:

If large distributed systems, such as transputer networks, are to be exploited fully, effective workload distribution strategies are required. For such systems to be successfully scalable, decision making in such strategies will need to be both dynamic and distributed. The choice of strategy depends on many factors, including the size and topology of the network together with the nature of the application. The success of any particular strategy is measured by comparing the time taken to execute the application on many processors with the time taken on few processors.
