The initiation rule of a load balancing algorithm determines when to begin a new load balancing operation. Therefore, it is critical to achieve the desired system performance. This paper proposes a generalized procedure for deriving initiation mechanisms or rules based on different objectives for the load balancing algorithm. A new metric, the initiation efficiency, is defined in order to evaluate the initiation performance and to compare the different alternatives.
