Abstract
The main concern of this paper is the utilization of an inexpensive cluster of PCs to study dynamic load balancing technique (DLB) for parallel tree computation. Dynamic load balancing is not only a central issue in the cluster of computers model, but also is required for many algorithms such as parallel search tree. The basic conclusion of the paper is that excellent performance can be achieved by proper implementation of the dynamic load balancing round robin (RR) scheme.
