Title
Load Balancing Based on Process Migration for MPI
Abstract
Process migration is one technique to implement environments that perform automatic load balancing. However on networks of workstations the load indices and heuristics that are used must respect the load that is imposed on the system by other users' processes. In this paper we suggest an approach that uses an existing process migration component to construct an automatic load balancing system for MPI applications. Both the load indices and the heuristics consider load that is imposed on the system due to other users activity. For a computational fluid dynamics application performance improvements between 10% and 54% could be achieved.
