Load Balancing Strategies in a Web Computing Environment Bonorden, Olaf Gehweiler, Joachim Meyer auf der Heide, Friedhelm We compare different load balancing strategies for Bulk-Synchronous Parallel (BSP) programs in a web computing environment. In order to handle the influence of the fluctuating available computation power, we classify the external work load. We evaluate the load balancing algorithms using our web computing library for BSP programs in Java (PUBWCL). Thereby we simulated the external work load in order to have repeatable testing conditions. With the best performing load balancing strategy we could save 39% of the execution time averaged and even up to 50% in particular cases. 2005 info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObject doc-type:conferenceObject text http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_5794 https://ris.uni-paderborn.de/record/16471 Bonorden O, Gehweiler J, Meyer auf der Heide F.
