A FRAMEWORK FOR SCALABLE DISTRIBUTED JOB PROCESSING WITH DYNAMIC LOAD BALANCING USING DECENTRALIZED APPROACH

A distributed system consists of many heterogeneous processors with different processing power and all processors are interconnected with a communication channel. In such a system if some processors are less loaded or idle and others are heavily loaded the system performance will be reduced drastically. System performance can be improved by using proper load balancing [1 4]. The aim of load balancing is to improve the performance measures and reduce the overall completion time and cost
