摘要：The demand for high performance computing continues to increase every day. With the availability of high speed networks, a large number of geographically distributed computational elements (CEs) (or computational systems (CSs)) can be interconnected and effectively utilized in order to achieve performance that may not be ordinarily attainable on a single CE or single CS. The distributed computing environment of this type demands for consideration of heterogeneities in computational and communication resources. In a distributed environment, an incoming workload has to be efficiently allocated to these CEs or CSs so that no single CE or CS is overburdened, while other remains idle. Further, tasks migration from high (overloaded) to low (moderately overloaded) area in a network may alleviate to some extent the network traffic congestion problem. Workstation or System clusters are being recognized as the most promising computing resource of the near future. A large-size cluster, consisting of locally connected workstations, has power comparable to a supercomputer, at a fraction of the cost. Distributing the total computational load across available processors is referred to as load-balancing. Keywords:- Load Balancing, Load Balancing Techniques, Centralized Server, File Server, Service Status Count.
