Automatic Balancing Chord: A Dynamic Load Balancing Mechanism for High Efficient

This paper presents a distributed lookup protocol named Automatic Balancing Chord(ABC) to solve load imbalance problems in distributed system. Load balancing problems in P2P environment have an important impact on the performance of P2P applications, which are probably caused by allocation of the peer address space, the difference of load size, query uneven distribution and so on. This paper proposes the ABC scheme can efficiently solve the load imbalance problems. It also has the advantage of average 1-2 hops of lookup and better effect of load balancing. Our experiments results showed the effect of load balancing under different P2P applications condition.
