Abstract

This paper introduces a new load balancing algorithm, called LDMA (Load balancing using decision making Decentralized Mobile Agents), which distributes load among clustered web servers organized in a mesh topology, by a communications network and compares its performance with other load balancing algorithm: MALD (Mobile Agent based LoaD balancing).Architecture is developed for the same and all necessary attributes such as load deviation, system throughput and average response time incurred as a result of the work are dealt with. In past works, a centralized decision making algorithms were used for dispatching the requests among the web servers in the distributed client/server environment. In the proposed approach, a decentralized decision making approach is used for distributing requests among the web servers. A simulator is developed in C++ and its performance is evaluated. The analysis shows that LDMA is better than MALD load balancing algorithm.
