In this paper we present the performance analysis of various load balancing algorithms based on different parameters, considering two typical load balancing approaches static and dynamic. The analysis indicates that static and dynamic both types of algorithm can have advancements as well as weaknesses over each other. Deciding type of algorithm to be implemented will be based on type of parallel applications to solve. The main purpose of this paper is to help in design of new algorithms in future by studying the behavior of various existing algorithms.}, journal = {International Journal of Civil and Environmental Engineering}, volume = {2}, number = {2}, year = {2008}, pages = {367 - 370}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/5537}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/14}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 14, 2008}, }
