Static load balancing in a computer network Description Static load balancing in a tree computer network with two-way traffic.
A set of heterogeneous host computers are interconnected; every
node processes jobs (the jobs arrive at each node according to a time
invariant Poisson process) locally or sends it to a remote node.
In the latter case, there is a communication delay for forwarding the job
and getting a response back.

A set of heterogeneous host computers are interconnected, in which each node processes jobs (the jobs arriving at each node according to a time invariant Poisson process) locally or sends it to a remote node. In the latter case, there is a communication delay of forwarding the job and getting a response back. The problem is then to minimize the mean response time of a job. The example considered here features 11 computers arranged as follows: 1 6 9 \ | / \ | / 2---4---5---8---10 / | \ / | \ 3 7 11 Based on AMPL model loadbal.mod Source: http://www.orfe.princeton.edu/~rvdb/ampl/nlmodels/cute Reference: J.
