Abstract :
Due to the outstanding progress in computer technology and an ever-rising demand for high-speed processing able to support the distributed mode there is an increasing trend towards the use of parallel and distributed systems. In addition, one of the important stages of any system utilizing parallel computing is the load balancing stage in which the balance of workload among all of the system´s processors is aimed. In this article, load balancing in parallel systems is studied then; a new load balancing algorithm which has new capabilities will be introduced. Among the new capabilities of this algorithm, its independence of a separate route-finder algorithm between the load receiver and sender nodes can be mentioned. Finally the results of the simulation of this algorithm will be presented.
