Abstract

Adopting multi-server infrastructure is an important way to improve the scalability of distributed virtual environment (DVE) system. Under this infrastructure, maintaining balanced load among multiple servers is of crucial to keep system usability. Existing load balancing methods mainly focus on the efficiency and effectiveness of the load balancing process, that is, how to reduce the number of overloaded server under less time cost, but ignore the influence of the client migrations during the running time. In this paper, we propose a new dynamic load balancing method based on the calculation of cell migration priority, which can effectively reduce the probability of client migrations between multiple servers, thus improving the overall system performance. The experimental results proved the effectiveness of the proposed method.
