A dynamic resource management in mobile agent by artificial neural network

In this paper, a resource management for dynamic load balancing in mobile agent by artificial neural network scheme (ANN-DLB) is presented to maximize the number of the served tasks in developing high performance cluster. This dynamic load balance with the growth of the service type and user number in the mobile networks of the higher performance is required in service provision and throughput. Most of the conventional policies are used in load indices with the threshold value to decide the load status of the agent hosts by CPU or memory. The main factor influencing the workload is the competitions among the computing resources such as CPU, memory, I/O and network. There are certain I/O data of the intensive applications where load balancing becomes the important issue. This relationship between the computing resources is very complex to define the rules for deciding the workload. This paper proposed a new dynamic load balancing for evaluating the agent hosts' workload with the artificial neural network (ANN). By applying the automatic learning of the back-propagation network (BPN) model can establish the ANN model and also can measure the agent host loading with five inputs: CPU, memory, I/O, network and run-queue length. The structure of the load balancing system is composed of three design agents: the load index agent (LIA), the resource management agent (RMA) and the load transfer agent (LTA). These experimental results reveal that the proposed ANN-DLB yields better performance than the other methods. These results demonstrate that the proposed method has high throughput, short response time and turnaround time, and less agent host negotiation complexity and migrating tasks than the previous methods.
