Summary:碩士 === 國立中興大學 === 資訊科學研究所 === 90 === As the World Wide Web (WWW) becomes more popular, the traffic on the Internet increases exponentially. With the development of the WWW, more server side computing power is required. It is not unusual that a web site is constantly facing the need to increase the server capacity. A widely adopted approach of increasing server capacity is to adopt a cluster-based web-server architecture. The most important part in the clustered web server architecture is the load balancing strategy, as it affects the performance of the system. In this thesis, we propose a dynamic load balancing strategy to dispatch the requests in the clustered web-server system to get better performance. Finally, we study the performance of this strategy with experiment. The result of the experiment can show that the strategy we propose has better server’s connection rate and load balancing against least connection dispatch algorithm and round robin dispatch algorithm.
