Enhanced Genetic Algorithm Based Load Balancing in Grid
Load Balancing (LB) has been an increasingly important issue for handling computational intensive task in a grid system. By developing strategies that can schedule such tasks to resources in a way that balance out the load, the total processing time will be reduced with improved resource utilization. In this paper, an Enhanced Genetic Algorithm (EGA) is proposed for achieving task scheduling with load balancing. The simulation results show that proposed algorithm yields better performance when compared with other traditional heuristic approaches.
