Abstract

A graph partitioning-based heuristic load-balancing algorithm
known as the Largest Task First with Minimum Finish Time and
Available Communication Costs is modified to take into account
the dynamic nature and heterogeneity of current large-scale distributed computing environments, like Grids. The modified algorithm is applied to
facilitate load balancing of a known CFD code used to model crystal
growth.
