TLDR
In this paper, a load balancer allocates requests to a pool of web servers configured to have low queue capacities, and each web server self-monitors its rejection rate, and if the rejection rate exceeds a threshold, the number of processes concurrently running on the web server is increased.Abstract:
A load balancer allocates requests to a pool of web servers configured to have low queue capacities. If the queue capacity of a web server is reached, the web server responds to an additional request with a rejection notification to the load balancer, which enables the load balancer to quickly send the rejected request to another web server. Each web server self-monitors its rejection rate. If the rejection rate exceeds a threshold, the number of processes concurrently running on the web server is increased. If the rejection rate falls below a threshold, the number of processes concurrently running on the web server is decreased.read more

Multipath routing in a distributed load balancer
TL;DR: In this article, a distributed load balancer in which a router receives packets from at least one client and routes packet flows to multiple load-balancer nodes is described. But, instead of advertising itself, the load balance node may be advertised to the router by one or more neighbor load balancers nodes; the neighbor nodes may terminate the BGP sessions with the router in response to determining that the loadbalancer node has failed.

Platform for Continuous Mobile-Cloud Services
TL;DR: In this paper, a failure recovery protocol is proposed that uses a checkpoint-based partial rollback recovery mechanism with selective re-execution, which may allow recovery of the continuous processing after an error while avoiding large amounts of downtime and reexecution.

Distributed load balancer node architecture
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a distributed load balancer in which a router receives packets from at least one client and routes packet flows to multiple Load Balancer (LB) nodes, which in turn distribute the packet flows among multiple server nodes.

Predictive memory caching for media-on-demand systems
TL;DR: In this article, a media-on-demand system employs predictive memory caching for a media server and associated data storage devices to meet requests from multiple clients for media programs stored on the data storage device.

Managing tcp anycast requests
TL;DR: In this paper, the TCP anycast requests at content delivery network nodes are discussed and the management of such requests at the content delivery nodes is discussed. But, in some embodiments, serving a request includes receiving a request at a node of a plurality of nodes comprising a content delivery networks, wherein each of the plurality of node share a same anycast IP address to which the request is directed and servicing the request at the node.
