%0 Journal Article %T The Study On Load Balancing Strategies In Distributed Computing System %A Md. Firoj Ali %A Rafiqul Zaman Khan %J International Journal of Computer Science and Engineering Survey %D 2012 %I Academy & Industry Research Collaboration Center (AIRCC) %X A number of load balancing algorithms were developed in order to improve the execution of a distributed application in any kind of distributed architecture. Load balancing involves assigning tasks to each processor and minimizing the execution time of the program. In practice, it would be possible even to execute the applications on any machine of worldwide distributed systems. However, the ¡®distributed system¡¯ becomes popular and attractive with the introduction of the web. This results in a significant performance improvement for the users. This paper describes the necessary, newly developed, principal concepts for several load balancing techniques in a distributed computing environment. This paper also includes various types of load balancing strategies, their merits, demerits and comparison depending on certain parameters. %K Load Balancing %K SLB %K DLB %K Parallel Computing %K Distributing Computing %U http://airccse.org/journal/ijcses/papers/3212ijcses03.pdf
