Abstract

Cluster is the cost-effective parallel processing environment, and consists of the off-the-shelf computers connected by the computer networks. The characteristics of cluster are the node heterogeneity, the variety of node load, and the variety of network load. Because these characteristics influence the performance of parallel program executions, the load sharing for cluster is important, and by using the proper load sharing strategy, we can reduce the execution time of parallel programs. In this paper, we propose modified GSS algorithm, aGSS. In the proposed load sharing algorithms aGSS, the size of tasks are decided using the BogoMIPS of node. From the result of out experiments, we conclude that the proposed aGSS algorithm is effective in the heterogeneous cluster.
