Performance Analysis of Static Load Balancing in Grid

118903-4646 IJECS-IJENS © June 2011 IJENS I J E N S  Abstract— Monitoring is the act of collecting information concerning the characteristics and status of resources of interest. The Grid Monitoring Architecture (GMA) based on simple Consumer/ Producer architecture with an integrated system registry and distinguishes transmission of monitoring data and data discovery logically. We propose grid monitoring system based on GMA. The proposed grid monitoring system consists of producers, registry, consumers, and failover registry. The registry is used to match the consumer with one or more producers, so it is the main monitoring tool. The failover registry is used to recover any failure in the main registry. The structure of proposed grid monitoring system depends on java Servlet and SQL query language. Load balancing (LB) should be added to the system to overcome the message overloaded. Load balancing algorithms can be static or dynamic. This paper evaluates the four types of static load balancing algorithms; Randomized, Round Robin, Threshold, and Central Manager algorithms. We evaluate the performance of the system by measuring the response time, and throughput. Central Manager algorithm introduces the smallest response time and the highest throughput.
