Abstract

This paper examines load balancing issues relating to a distributed
CORBA-based Service Control Point. Two types of load balancing strategies are
explored through simulation studies: (i) a novel ant-based load balancing algorithm,
which has been devised specically for this type of system. This algorithm
is compared to more traditional algorithms, (ii) a method for optimal distribution of
the computational objects composing the service programs. This is based on mathematically
minimising the expected communication ows between network nodes
and message-level processing costs. The simulation model has been based on the
recently adopted OMG IN/CORBA Interworking specication and the TINA Service
Session computational object model.
