-This directory contains the implementations of the TAO Load Balancing
-service, which is called as Cygnus.
-
-Cygnus currently implements the latest revision of the OMG Load Balancing
-and Monitoring proposed specification. The features and advantages of
-Cygnus include:
-1. Multiple object group support.
-2. Extensible load balancing strategies through IDL interface.
-3. Extensible load monitoring.
-4. Support for push and pull style monitoring.
-5. Support for infrastructure and application controlled memberships.
-6. Efficient server side transparency.
-7. Default implementations of well known load balancing strategies.
-
-Future Work targeted:
-1. Implement a distributed load balancing service.
-2. Implement stateful load balancing service.
-3. Implement self adaptive load balancing strategies using control
-theoretical techniques.
