RSS delaysOn the Optimization of Load Balancing in Distributed Networks in the Presence of Delay
White Paper In large-scale distributed-computing environments, there are a number of inherent time-delay factors that can seriously alter the expected performance of load-balancing (or scheduling) policies that do not account for such delays. [10 Jul 2008]
End-to-End Available Bandwidth: Measurement Methodology, Dynamics, and Relation With TCP Throughput
White Paper The basic idea in SLoPS is that the one-way delays of a periodic packet stream show an increasing trend when the stream's rate is higher than the avail-bw. Pathload is nonintrusive, meaning that it does not cause significant increases in the... [10 Jul 2008]
Geographic Load Balancing for Scalable Distributed Web Systems
White Paper Users of highly popular Web sites may experience long delays when accessing information. Upgrading content site infrastructure from a single node to a locally distributed Web cluster composed by multiple server nodes provides a limited relief... [10 Jul 2008]
Decentralized Dynamic Load Balancing: The Particles Approach
White Paper Besides load balancing, the goal is to place intensively communicating tasks close together to minimize communication delays. This paper considers the problem of mapping tasks to processor nodes at run-time in multiprogrammed multicomputer systems... [10 Jul 2008]
A Neural Network Approach for Dynamic Load Balancing in Homogeneous Distributed Systems
White Paper All delays due to any usage of the communications network resource are taken into account. A novel neural-based solution to the problem of dynamic load balancing in homogeneous distributed systems is proposed. [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing in the Presence of Random Node Failure and Recovery
White Paper A Load-Balancing (LB) policy for such systems should therefore be robust, in terms of workload re-allocation and effectiveness in task completion, with respect to the random absence and re-emergence of nodes as well as random delays in the... [10 Jul 2008]
Providing Differentiated Services by Load Balancing and Scheduling in MPLS Networks
White Paper The upper and lower bound of ratio of mean delays have approximated between classes achieved by work-conserving scheduling. The capability of MPLS of explicit routing as well as of splitting of the traffic on several paths allows load balancing. [10 Jul 2008]
Reliable Routing in MPLS Networks
White Paper To obtain the appropriate alternate paths, common edges shared among paths have to be considered, as well as path lengths (end-to-end delays), during path calculations. Explicit routing and the pre-allocation of network resources are essential to... [10 Jul 2008]
Rate Allocation Under Network End-to-End Quality-of-Service Requirements
White Paper In this algorithm, session sources update their rates as to maximize their individual benefit (utility minus bandwidth cost), the network partitions end-to-end delay requirements into local per-link delays, and the links adjust their prices to... [10 Jul 2008]
Parameter Calibration, Customer Load Balancing and Security Aspects for Multiplexing of BPO Infrastructure
White Paper Multiplexing of BPO infrastructure using Customer Interface Array (CIA), is organized as a distributed environment across various service centers to minimize delays, maximize efficiency and improve customer satisfaction. [10 Jul 2008]
Network of Automated Package Collection Stations Enhances Customer Satisfaction
White Paper This resulted in additional costs for DHL and delivery delays for customers. DHL faced the challenge to overcome problem of no one available to sign for packages being delivered and packages being returned to the depot. [09 Jul 2008]
Statistical Analysis of Database Performance Delays
White Paper This statistical analysis looks at the source of database delays as experienced across a range of different scenarios. As part of Confio Software's consulting and database tuning exercises, we have the chance to observe performance data from... [08 Jul 2008]
Distributed Control of an XY Board Via Ethernet
White Paper However, the investors still hesitate on its field level operation for time critical applications, due to the non-deterministic delays in the closed world of a switched network. The objective of this paper is to practically prove an adaptive... [08 Jul 2008]
Scheduling Support for Hard Real-Time Ethernet Networking
White Paper With nodes dedicated to communication the application-to-application delays on a 5-node network were reported to be less than a millisecond with both Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet technology with a link utilization of 93% and 49%. [08 Jul 2008]
An Efficient Host-to-Host Available Bandwidth Estimation Scheme
White Paper The method that is iterative generates new probing rates by proportionally decreasing an initial probing rate as a function of backlogged delays as a result of extra traffics along the path. This paper takes an initiative from TOPP and SLoPS and... [08 Jul 2008]
