Abstract

Computer networks provide the potential for resource sharing. Realization of this potential requires knowledge of the available resources within the network. Moreover, if a given resource is available at more than one host, selection of the most appropriate host is required. This paper develops a dynamic means for host selection assuming that the evaluation metric is processing time. An experiment is described which provides an initial evaluation of the key component of the methodology on two separate systems. The paper concludes with a discussion of some overall insights into the applicability of the methodology and its implementation requirements.
