Simulation study of dynamic load balancing for processor sharing servers with finite capacity under generalized Halfin-Whitt regimes

Defining efficient decentralized load balancing schemes exhibiting low memory and communication costs is an important ongoing topic. In particular, characterizing critical regimes where a system optimizes resource usage is uncharted territory. We consider here dynamic balancing schemes in a set of p...

description Defining efficient decentralized load balancing schemes exhibiting low memory and communication costs is an important ongoing topic. In particular, characterizing critical regimes where a system optimizes resource usage is uncharted territory. We consider here dynamic balancing schemes in a set of processor sharing servers with finite capacity. Guided by recent results for insensitive load balancing schemes, we applied a modeling and simulation strategy to characterize systematically and extensively several classes of balancing policies under various statistical conditions. We found that there is a class of efficient policies for which a common critical regime can be identified and interpreted as a generalization of the Halfin-Whitt-Jagerman regime for one-server systems.
