Description
To improve the performance of parallel/distributed systems, we propose four parallel load balance algorithms. The new partition algorithm achieves load balance among processors via domain partition. If we assume the problem domain is evenly load distributed, this algorithm will divide the whole domain into a required number of subdomains with the same area. If a problem domain has a dynamic load distribution, although the new partition algorithm is still suitable for the initial mapping, we propose three dynamic load balance algorithms. These dynamic algorithms achieve load balance among processors by transferring load among processors. We applied the new partition algorithm to a specific domain and compared the method to some existing partition algorithms. We also simulated three dynamic load balance algorithms. Results of comparisons and simulations show that all the four algorithms have satisfactory performance.
