Abstract

The monetary cost optimization of a computer utility load distribution problem is examined. The problem is to find the sequence in which to distribute divisible computing load from a root processor to its children processors which achieves the lowest monetary distribution cost. The convergence performance of a heuristic greedy algorithm is studied. This problem is directly relevant to computer utilities which offer computing and software hosting to organizations for a monetary charge.
