The problem of redistributing the work load on parallel computers is considered. An optimal redistribution algorithm, which minimises the Euclidean norm of the migrating load, is derived. The relationship between this algorithm and some existing algorithms is discussed and the convergence of the new

Diusion type algorithms [1,3,11] are some of the most popular algorithms for scheduling in dynamic load balancing. It is known however that this type of algorithm can suer from slow convergence. In this paper the performance of the diusion type algorithms is improved, while retaining the nearest nei
The most popular parallelization approach of the branch and bound algorithm consists in building and exploring in parallel the search tree representing the problem being tackled. The deployment of such parallel model on a grid rises the crucial issue of dynamic load balancing. The major question is
In a distributed computing system, it is desirable to balance the work load among processors while keeping the communication overhead at a minimum. The nearest neighbor balancing strategy requires little communication overhead compared to the sophisticated dynamic load balancing policies. The questi
