Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordBalanced Scheduling of Independent File-Sharing Tasks in Heterogenous EnvironmentR. K. Ponsy, Sathia Bhama, S. Thamarai SelviProblem statement: To examine the strategies for scheduling of independent file-sharing tasks in a heterogeneous environment and the concept of load balancing. Approach: We propose hypergraph partitioning based strategy for the scheduling of non-critical jobs. This is done by scheduling the tasks that share tasks among them to the same processor. The tasks thus scheduled are employed to a load … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 17 Oct 2011 · 6,776 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimization of the Performance of Single-Phase Capacitor-Run Induction MotorMahdi Salman AlshamasinThe aim of the study was to suggest optimal solution for the impact of harmonics on the performance of Capacitor-Run Motor (CRM), the most commonly used single-phase motor. Therefore, investigations were carried out over the entire slip from no-load condition up to the locked-rotor condition, for harmonics of various orders in the case of using Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) speed control. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,479 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModel for Load Balancing On Processors in Parallel Mining of Frequent ItemsetsRavindra Patel, S. S. Rana, K. R. PardasaniThe existence of many large transactions distributed databases with high data schemas, the centralized approach for mining association rules in such databases will not be feasible. Some distributed algorithms have been developed [FDM, CD], but none of them have considered the problem of data skews in distributed mining of association rules. The skewness of datasets reduces the workload balancing between … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,341 accessesView PDFCite
