Abstract

The Computing Mist is characterized as an extension of Cloud Computing and comes as a complement, filling gaps as lower response time and also less use of internet. This paper presents an architectural model of a load balancer computing environments in mist, whose objectives address the reduction of us mist overloaded and unbalanced as well, abstracting the end IoT device failures that occur in the nodes that comprise it. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed solution, it organized a simulation environment where ever compared to this work with some proposed solutions, and evaluated the proposed algorithm in heterogeneous computing environments. The results show that high-priority tasks consume the lowest possible response time in the environment or processing or in the queue, which raises the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
