Network Load Balancing in Teleconferencing Systems

ABSTRACT

Load balancing techniques are useful for efficient networking systems. In teleconferencing systems, it is not an easy job to balance the loads and obtain efficient performance. The current study tries to suggest a network-based approach for load balancing in teleconferencing systems. The aim is to make use of the concepts of graph theory in practicing and simulating teleconferencing systems. In the suggested approach, each computer in the network is considered as a vertex, an edge will be created between two vertices if they are accessible to each other. The weight of the edge between the two computers specifies the cost of access from one vertex to another. The task of transferring happens between the shortest ways of the two nodes taking into consideration the deadline time of the tasks. In terms of the number of the missed deadline tasks, the proposed approach reflected effectiveness in comparison with other approaches. Using the proposed, it is guarantee to obtain a smooth conferencing among users, which is beneficial for the teleconferencing and e-learning as well. Finally, this proposed method is useful for securing smooth conferencing during further lockdown situation (i.e., COVID situation). © 2022 IEEE.
