摘要
Dynamic load balancing in multicomputers can improve the utilization of processors and the efficiency of parallel computations through migrating the workload across processors at runtime. We present a survey and critique of dynamic load balancing strategies that are iterative: that is, workload migration is carried out through transferring processes across nearest neighbour processors. Iterative strategies have become prominent in recent years because of the increasing popularity of point-to-point interconnection networks for multicomputers.
