Abstract :
This paper deals with the comparison of different load balancing strategies for massively parallel computations on clusters. There are four different strategies presented - static versus dynamic load balancing applied to master-worker and two-level master-worker models. Algorithms were applied to the problem of large matrix multiplication. The obtained results can be generalized to other problems, which require massively parallel computation.
