APPLICATION OF THE LOAD BALANCING METHOD ON HIGH PARALLEL COMPUTING CLUSTER SYSTEMS

https://doi.org/10.55452/1998-6688-2021-18-1-117-124

Abstract

High parallel efficiency for various large-scale tasks requires that the computational load is evenly distributed among all computational processors. This study presents a dynamic load balancing scheme that improves the performance of complex coupled simulations with non-trivial domain expansions. In addition, the high scaling experiment results show that the benefit of load balancing is proportional to the degree of parallelism.
