The use of lightweight threads in a distributed memory environment is becoming common. As distributed lightweight threads have become popular, there has been increased interest in migrating threads across process boundaries. One possible use of thread migration is to perform dynamic load balancing. This paper introduces our implementation of a dynamic load balancing mechanism using thread migration as the means for load redistribution. We provide a brief description of the thread migration mechanism and a detailed description of the load balancing layer. We also present the performance of this load balancing mechanism on a variety of parallel applications.
