Abstract: We consider the following load balancing problem. Jobs arrive on-line and must be assigned to one of m machines thereby increasing the load on that machine by a certain weight. Jobs also depart on-line. The goal is to minimize the maximum load on any machine, the load being defined as the sum of the weights of the jobs assigned to the machine. The scheduler has also the option of preempting a job and reassigning it to another machine. Whenever a job is assigned or reassigned to a machine,... (Update)

...load is 1. Thus, one must allow reassignments to achieve significant results for this model. Algorithms for this purpose appear in [32, 38, 2, 3]. 7 L p norm In all the previous sections we evaluated the performance of the algorithm by the maximum load. In section we...

.... For instance the machines may be a set of communication channels which have to accommodate requests for bandwidth [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9]. In another application the machines represent distributed database platforms and the jobs are programs which access the database. In...
