  ABSTRACT: In this paper, we propose consensus based load balancing algorithm for network of heterogeneous workstations. Load balancing is a critical issue in parallel and distributed computing in order to carry out efficient utilization of computational resources. The focus of this work is to design a dynamic decentralized load balancing algorithm for a network of heterogeneous workstations using consensus theory and graph partitioning. Simulation results show that the proposed load balancing algorithm is scalable, reliable, fault tolerant and maintains a balance between communication overhead and load balancing time.
